Nobody Tells This To Beginners



I found this on Facebook this morning and is so perfect for me and maybe for you too.  It is the reason I started this blog and the reason I will continue to look for guest bloggers.  I choose people who speak to me.  Who do things differently, Who see thing differently. Who I can learn from.

I am so grateful to Debra Eck.  Even though she tells me I flatter her, I am in awe of her work and the fact that she would take the time to share on a fledgling blog with someone who never thought to call herself an artist until recently.  She remembers that everyone has to start somewhere... and it takes time.

So watch this video and take it to heart. Now go create, However you do it.

thanks to Creavite who created the video (which in itself is pretty amazing!) and of course Ira Glass!

  1. Really I have to say it took me at LEAST a decade to really hit my creative stride. I made good work before that occasionally, but ow I am much more confident about what is me and what I can just leave aside. I would also recommend the book Do The Work by Steven Pressfield and Art & Fear by David Bayles and Ted Orland.

  2. This is amazing! Thank you for sharing. I have spent a lot of time in this phase both in my personal art and my art I make for work.
