All Great Art is Authentic
Connecting to your own authentic core will fill you and your work with strength and relevance.
To those engaged in making art, an authentic voice is the most crucial yet most difficult ability to come by. Why does so much conspire to hide what is ultimately the closest, simplest thing of all?
Creative Authenticity outlines 16 principles that will help you peel back the fears, misconceptions, "shoulds" and confusion around courageous creative expression. You'll discover:
- you are more than creative enough
- talent has little to do with your success
- the van Gogh syndrome is one of the most destructive myths of what it takes to create
- the dance of avoidance upon arriving in the studio is inevitable - learn to see through it and begin
- the necessity of finding a truthful relationship with your work so it feeds you, not torments you.
