Personalized insight
You’re an artist?
I have a question for you:
How many times have people told you that as an artist you really need to find “something to fall back on”?
It sucks, doesn’t it?
The truth is that civilians, those people who aren’t artists, rarely understand the artist’s journey.
They’re still holding onto that outdated stereotype of the ‘starving artist’. They compromise in their own life choices and assume that we should do the same. They believe that choosing to pursue an art career is willfully irresponsible.
They’re wrong.
And allowing other people’s fears to stop you, is a recipe for disappointing life.
If you’re struggling to keep the faith on your artist’s journey then this video is for you. Watch it now and discover why I think artists don’t need to fall back. They need to fall forward.
And jump!
