Working with Ugly
There are so many times in the process of making an artwork when the thing is just hideous and depressing. Unsticking the work from BAD can be a test of nerves but also an invigorating ride into a carefree nothing-to-lose place because any version of deeply uncomfortable is where opportunity resides. Every artist has their method for staying with discomfort but some kind of hard won confidence and a sense of humor are the shared threads.
