reaching for the next level in your art career or just getting started as an artist

a beautiful friend recently asked about resources for artists. as i pondered a list for her i realized that the resources that help us get started as artists are the same resources that can help us when we get in a rut. whether you're a new or seasoned artist, as you listen/read the list, may your heart tell you 3 or so resources you can focus on right now to get you going or get you back in the studio feeling inspired or with new direction/vision. what a gift it is to create!! wherever you are in your creative journey -- please keep moving forward. our heavenly parents created you with wisdom, beauty and all the confidence that you too can and will create. we were created to create!! sending so much love to you and your creative loved ones!

artist family expectations: success is putting in your dues…or is there more to it?

CANDYcolored studio podcast episode 242:

a few years ago, an artist who i love and admire shared with me that her family felt she shouldn't be "already" experiencing success in her art career because she hadn't "put in her dues" yet. this was mind-blowing to me. if there was ever a place to find your biggest supporters, it should be your parents and family -- especially when your parent is an artist!! i'll be sharing some thoughts on this experience and a couple others of mine and that have been shared with me. sometimes it really is too easy to look at our own perceived "lacking" situation and simply decide that it's either not our fault or someone else's fault. but who really has the power and the responsibility to change our situation? what can we do to fix things in our own realm?
