Perfection isn’t beautiful. Trying is

The Story

“The First Ugly Thing I Made”

The first time I made something, I hated it.
It was clumsy. Rough. Too much of something and not enough of something else. The kind of thing you do not show to anyone—not because they’ll laugh, but because you will.

I remember staring at it—this mess of shapes and shadows—and thinking,
“This can’t be it.”

But there was something about it.
Not the way it looked, but the way it felt.
Like a small truth trying to speak.

No one talks about how ugly the beginning is.
How awkward it feels to try.
To want something beautiful to come out, but all you get is noise.

But maybe that is the point.

This render—Beauty in Ugliness—is not about perfection.
It is about that first breath you take when you dare to start.

It is about letting go of what “should” be and making space for what is.
Because there’s beauty in showing up, in failing softly, in creating something real.

This is not polished. It is not meant to be.
It’s honest. And sometimes, honesty is ugly.
But it is yours.

I made this for anyone who is trying.
Who is fumbling. Who is not sure?

Because that’s where beauty lives—
Not in the outcome. In the courage to begin.

Why It Exists

Blizzzl is not just about art. It is about the truth we do not often show. Beauty in Ugliness is your reminder that it is okay to be a mess. Okay to not get it right. Okay to begin.

This is not just a print. It is a pause. A breath. A moment to forgive yourself for not being perfect.

Feel it. Frame it. Remember it.
This is for those who are still becoming

Artist’s Personal Note

“I hope this reminds you that beginnings aren’t about getting it right. They’re about getting real.”
