Why are instructors so inspiring??

I saw this raptor design of Brian Wolfe's and it seemed so cool...like why couldn't I think of that one my own??? This is my first try with my autumn leaf cake and it it turned out really cool and will be even better once I practice it. How do they make this stuff seem so easy? It's not THAT much different than my one before but it is....

You guys are too nice!

I'm just always surprised how super talent people like the Wolfe Brothers Christina, Mark Reid and Pashur and Marcela, etc...how they can be so creative. It's like they see the world differently. And I guess because they paint so much, they can make a dino come alive like I couldn't in a thousand years.

I think I must be more left brained than I thought. I like deconstructing face painting and that helps me figure it out so I can do a design consistently...that's my "superpower." I'm not that fast, and I'm not that creative and I can't "draw" like Dutch and some of the amazing painters on the forum like Kim & Shannon.

Like I said in different post...I'm so grateful that there are the designers out there (and here) that push the envelope and try the really cool stuff so that we can all get better and better.
