Don’t worry about making your paintings perfect. Make your paintings good enough. Good enough is often still great. A great painting is worthwhile while a perfect painting may be unobtainable.

I’m a fan of both Stoic philosophy and (obviously) watercolor painting. These two interests may not seem related, but I’ve found that both have a lot to teach me about accepting what’s not in my control. In this post, I’ll talk about the similarities between watercolor and how watercolor helps me practice Stoicism.
