Making Mistakes

Making mistakes - learn from them. You do the whole process again, so you are developing new skills and becoming more skillful. Opposed to digital where you literally press the undo button. You are not necessarily learning and getting a greater understanding of the process.

What makes analogue illustration more interesting than digital?

Mistakes are important its how you learn from them.

Jackson Pollock compared with Roy Lichtenstein - the paint splat made into something digital. 

Melanie Rothschild 

Accidently spilled a whole gallon of paint into her workshop. When it dried she was able to peel the whole thing off. She then became obsessed with spilling paint, letting it dry and peeling it off. She became obsessed with the idea that mistakes lead to new ideas. Setbacks along the way can be a catalyst for new ideas and adventures.

Winston Churchill - 'success is going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.'

'Goal mistakes' - choose purposely to take a risk, for success, coaching and trial and error.
