Thank you, Andrea. Seeing how you resolved and wrangled this piece was enlightening. I’ll remember it next time I’m struggling. It will bring me peace instead of self doubt 🤗

C'est quand même rassurant d’apprendre que se perdre en cours de route ça fait partie du processus. Je maîtrise très bien l’égarement 😂

Yeah a lot of it is about being patient enough to let your layers set up and stepping away to see your composition with fresh eyes. Patience is king and queen 👸
