Re: Nerves
I remember watching a Sam Soloman interview and he had the same problem when he was getting into pro boxing. He could go 15 rounds in sparring, but he'd get tense when he got into the ring. Anyways he started to go out there and enjoy himself, he'd even smile and with that working for him he could relax. Try to smile, draw upon your good experiences in training maybe the funny moments. The neat thing about a genuine smile is that it changes your brainwaves, i.e. it causes your mind to relax.
If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.
