Why You Don’t Trust Your Creative Self

(and How to Change That)

🌿A free guide for women who love drawing but doubt themselves

You love drawing, but something holds you back.
Maybe you only draw on weekends.
Maybe you hesitate to call yourself an “artist.”
Maybe every time you share your work, a small voice says: “It’s not good enough.”
You’re not alone.
So many women I meet, professionals, mothers, retirees, all carry the same quiet question:
“Does this even count as art?”

This free mini-guide will help you uncover WHY that doubt appears, and HOW to gently rebuild your trust in your creative self.


✏️ What’s Inside

You’ll explore five common reasons women lose faith in their creativity, and learn how to begin changing the story:1. You compare yourself to “real artists.”
Discover how comparison steals joy and how to find your own artistic voice.
2. You’ve learned to see drawing as a skill test, not an expression.
Learn why your art doesn’t have to be perfect to be powerful.
3. You silence yourself before you start.
Turn your sketchbook into a safe, private space for discovery.
4. You confuse doodles with “nothing.”
Recognize your doodles as the seeds of your unique visual language.
5. You expect confidence to come before practice.
Shift your mindset and build trust in your creative rhythm.
Each section includes a gentle reflection prompt to help you connect with your own creative truth, and beautifully illustrated photos from my studio to inspire you.


🌿 Why This Matters
When you stop doubting your creative voice, everything changes.
Drawing becomes less about skill and more about presence, expression, and self-trust.
“A line is a dot that went for a walk.” - Paul Klee
This guide is your invitation to take that first walk again.**

Thank you for giving us this opportunity Brindusa. Going back to basics, learning from scratch, feeling so new to something has been eyes opening for me. Learning to translate feelings into drawings, in a place of no judgement and realizing how some techniques mirror the way you live your life, how, using the left hand to draw, my rational mind disappears … wow fascinating 🤩 can t wait to continue the journey together 🤗 - Alessandra


Hello! I’m Brindusa
I am a visual artist. I work and teach from my studio, high up in the Swiss Alps.
Before that, I photographed, for almost 10 years. So when I found myself in art school trying to draw my first self-portrait, I had one of the most depressing moments in my life!Luckily, I didn’t give up. Today I exhibit every year, working on large scale projects and am totally immersed in imagining beautiful worlds.What did it? I believed I was an artist.🌿 This is my gift to you: a way to begin shifting the story you tell yourself about your art.** When you sign up, you agree to receive communications from Brindusa Burrows Art.
