Hour by hour, day after day, I do this. Always searching for what's wrong with what I'm creating, rarely thinking about what's good about it. It's a negative reinforcement feedback loop.
"Dude, you're so lucky to be a master sculptor. Always hanging out with famous models and actors who want nothing more than to strip for you. Your works will be celebrated for more than two thousand years. I wish I could do that."

"Hour by hour, day after day, I do this. Always searching for pieces of stone that don't belong, always trying to remove the elements that aren't part of my work, rather than being able to focus on the stone that remains. I can never truly build anything, only erode. It's a negative reinforcement feedback loop. I think I'll try watercolors next."
