I'm Afraid to Fail in Art Class...

Hey there, folks. I know you're all gonna think this is ridiculous, but here goes anyway. So, I'm an artist, and yeah, I've got this reputation of being really good at what I do. But lately, every time I step into art class, my stomach just twists up in knots... like someone poured a bucket of ice water down my back. It's funny because whenever we have those big critiques or presentations, everyone always has such kind words for me and my work. But inside, all I can think is 'Oh no, did they catch that awkward moment when I mixed blue with red instead of the other way around?' Or worse, what if they figure out how many times I've doodled rather than working on the assignment? It's crazy because usually, I'm so confident in my abilities... but art class has turned me into a nervous wreck. And to be honest, it feels kinda stupid to worry like this when I can create just about anything I set my mind to outside of school. But there it is...
