My dad always teases me that I end up not liking my art after it's 5 yrs old or older. It's partly true. My parents of course still proudly display as much artwork as possible from me and my sisters. :)
Yes, the nagging self doubt disappears. And yes, I do look back at work I've done a while ago and see ways in which I could have done it better, but you know what? I'm glad I can see that, see those things. It means you're aware. And that's a good thing in my opinion. Nothing's ever perfect, nor does it have to be.
I really like reading "The Artist's Way" it has a lot of good insight in it.
Here's a quote from Paul Gardner that's in the book "A painting is never finished. It simply stops in interesting places" For some reason I liked that one. :)
