Nick,
I feel a liitle out of place here as you don't know me but I have
learned so much from you and the others on this site.
I'm a newbie to this art form and your talent puts me in awe! I have
been impressed not only with your artwork, but with your intellegence
and articulation. I was shocked to find out you were only 14!!!!!!!
Most guys your age are little boys, not young men. While most of your
(age) peers are worring about how Mary looks after the summer and do I
stand a chance with her, you are running a business. I call that
initative.

Most people don't start their own business until they are out of
college, you are only starting high school, cut yourself some slack.
You are still suppose to be having fun..how does old Mary look....?

You are too hard on yourself. The harshest critic a truly gifted
artist will have is themself. Your talent will only continue to
improve (is that possible?) and refine. You will find that
concetration will come more easily and you will (hopefully) see your
work as others see it. See the beauty and not just what you feel is
wrong with it.

If you feel you need time from your business, take it. It would be a
great loss if you gave up on Mehndi because you burned out on it
because of the business aspect. Your skill is not defined by how your
business is doing!

Hope your school year goes well!

let us know how it is going.
