Show Notes
This week, Richie and I are chatting about creative confusion. Sometimes you can think you have your art figured out and then lo and behold you are back at square one, uncertain about where you are heading and what direction you want to take.
I have been experiencing this over the past week or two, so it was good to unpack it with Richie.
We talk about why my art is changing, the negative impacts of social media on creativity and the advantages of lingering in the experimental phase.
At the end of the episode, I share a few ideas that are less about resolving confusion and more about embracing it.
I hope you enjoy the episode and it alleviates some of the pressure to have your art style boxed off and fully resolved!

There's a fine line between preparing and procrastinating! This week, we answer a listener question about why it can be so hard to actually sit down and make art.
I'd love to say that my journey as an artist has been a smooth one, filled with joyful painting and effortless learning, but I think we all know that's not quite how things go!
What is flow state, why is it so beneficial for artists, and what can we do to create more opportunities for it to show up in our creative practice?
Marketing is a tricky part of running a creative business. It can feel pushy, icky or simply like a chore — but at other times, it can be surprisingly interesting and even fun.
In this episode, Richie shares a simple mindset tool for checking in on how we’re doing. Are we flat chat and edging towards burnout? Or have we eased off so much that we’re starting to disconnect and stagnate? It’s a helpful way to find that sustainable sweet spot and keep the spark alive over the long term.
