We all started somewhere! 🤗
And every artist, sportsman, musician or other once took their very first steps — even the makers you may now look at with admiration.
Everyone had their first, an awkward movement, a wrong note, their first piece, and that moment when the result in your hands looked nothing like the picture in your head.
And that is completely normal 👍
A professional is not someone who never makes mistakes. It is someone who keeps doing what they love, even when things do not work out right away.
My journey did not start with perfect pieces either. There were unsuitable needles, confusing materials, failed attempts, and moments when I wanted to put everything aside “until better times”.
But with time, understanding comes. Your hands become more confident. You start to feel the wool better, see the shape more clearly, notice the details. And what once felt like a mistake slowly becomes experience.
In the photos, you can see my first works from 2011–2012 and the pieces I made later, in 2020–2023.
I am sharing this not as a simple reminder: every artist has a beginning artist 🧑🎨
So I wish you not to be afraid of your first steps. Not to expect a perfect result right away. Not to compare your beginning with someone else’s middle 🫶♥️
Just try. Learn. Create with curiosity.
And keep going if it truly speaks to you.
