My mask used to be submissive. I'm sorry. It's my fault. You're right. That was my whole schtick. And I was miserable, plus I couldn't make everyone happy. So I hide no more! I still prefer to go out with makeup on though. Don't HAVE to, but I prefer to.

One of my favourite sayings: Why be normal when you can be yourself?

All of it. But after years of trying to perfect myself as an artist and person I can tell you a few wisdoms. You are a fantastic person. If the rest doesn't see that... tough luck. Hide behind your big personality all you like because other people love big personalities but are too scared to become one themselves! Your art is great and you do not need to feel ashamed of it, rather the opposite. Trust your own instincts with art and let the idiots be cantankerous and boring because they live by a set of unseen rules that is supposed to make them better but stifles them instead. Agree with you on the phone thing. Mean it about the art. And about going out... I have solved it. You are an artist so you are supposed to be outrageous. The more flaws you have the more reasons for you to be an artist. So I have highlighted all my flaws with very visible tattoos. Now they really have something to talk about when they see me. This is advice from one artist to another, but this one has already been there and done that... That sounds so familiair, you have no idea. All of it.
