An artist appreciates that there may be times when the original vision for the art is not necessarily evolving as intended. The color palette does not work, the shape is not forming, the music does not match the words. While an option may be to try and remedy the issue, it may require a fresh canvas and start all over to achieve the result they envision.
Daily we encounter similar obstacles. Do we start with a fresh canvas? Habitually, we force our thinking to the issue, hoping that persistence and a dogmatic approach may change the outcome. By layering on top of something that is already flawed may not bring the desired result.
Starting over is no loss. You have a foundation of knowledge to build from, you know what to avoid, and you likely have clarity in what you need to do. The masters did it; possibly that’s your cue.
