Hey, I totally get that color dilemma—it’s like trying to decide between a pop of excitement and a calm vibe. Try laying out a few swatches next to each other, maybe on a plain background, and see which one feels right when you step back. If it’s a bold red, make sure it’s balanced with softer accents so it doesn’t overwhelm; if you lean softer, add a small pop of color somewhere else to keep it lively. When frustration starts creeping in, give yourself a quick break—walk, stretch, or just hum your favorite song. Then come back with fresh eyes and maybe do a rapid “trial” by painting a small corner or a quick sketch. Treat it like a mini experiment: you’ll see what pops up, and you’ll have a clearer direction. Remember, every creative hiccup is just a chance to try something new—turn that frustration into a fun little test run!
