  • AIC Stories 021 - AIC Original S120 - Let's Talk About Gear

    We all know that as an artist gear doesn’t really matter… or does it? I think it actually does, but maybe not in the way that you are thinking.

    Remembering my Fujifilm X100T

    This is the article I reference in the episode where I talk a little about my experience with some gear that really DID matter to me. Problem is that I didn't really know it until years later!

  • AIC Stories 017 - AIC Original S116 - Knowing When To Stop

    We often think of creativity in terms of beginnings. New ideas just waiting to be acted upon and how to access them. But how do we know when to stop? When is an idea actually finished? 

    ----more----

     

    So often we get completely wrapped up in the beginning aspect of creativity, we jump into a new project and we are flying high... Until we are suddenly aimlessly drifting. Lost at in the sea of an idea with no clue where to land and wrap up that adventure so we can move on to the next. So how do we know when it's time to land that plane and actually put that idea to bed. When do we say it's finished and release it into the wild? 

    I don't have an answer for you, but it's something I want to explore with you, so let's do it!

    Episode Links

    Have I created enough? 

    This is an article I wrote almost 1 year ago that set me on a path over the last week or two really trying to figure it all out.
