I experience imposter syndrome regularly and in this episode I tell you all about it!

6 Things I Did To Go Full Time As An Artist Dec 12, 2022

Show notes

I’ve always been an artist, but for years and years I was an artist slash waitress. I think having a flexible job is KEY for creatives who are passionate about making great work, establishing their voice, exhibiting it to the world, and selling it. All of that takes time, energy, and creativity. I like to say that building a business as an artist takes the same amount of creativity it took to make your art in the first place.

What You NEED To Boost Your Creativity Dec 05, 2022

Show notes

One of the best ways to get more ideas, make more art, and get better at your art is, well, to work on your art! As the slogan goes, “just do it”. Get to your studio or your art table or your atelier and make. The. Work. As the brilliant quote goes “amateurs wait for inspiration. The rest of us show up and get to work." However, I have found that brilliant ideas and the fuel I need for my creative practice often happens AWAY from my studio. In fact, there are 7 creativity boosting activities that I try to make a part of my life on a regular basis because they have been so powerful for my studio practice.
