    Something like this: "Hmm, gotta be very careful now... that bit of shade has a very subtle gradation from dark to.. oh FUCK it there I messed it up again... and now I notice I got the shape of that bit there completely wrong, why didn't I notice it before, dammit..."

    Very glamorous, huh? :-)

    " You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
    When I met you
    I picked you out, I shook you up, and turned you around
    Turned you into someone new
    Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet
    Success has been so easy for you
    But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now
    And I can put you back down too "

    All the songs from 1981 and you have to pick that one? Now I have to go listen to some Joan Jett to get that out of my head.

    Strangely enough I've been Joan Jetting today as well. If that's psychology then it seems to work. Here's punky Ramonesey Joan, as opposed to fluffy poodle Joan, but they're all wonderful!

    It goes like this...
    Stage 1. I wanna draw something wonderful!
    Stage 2. No, not awesome enough.
    Stage 3. That's better but not good enough.
    Stage 4. I'm getting tired of this.
    Stage 5. I'm done!
    Stage 6. Looks ok I guess.

    The same as when I am not drawing. Only the extra to distract me: look good, don't mess it up, add there some shadow, make it darker, aha finally it's getting good, shit I destroyed it
