What you say about your work is what others will say when you are not around.

Just as your work is important, so is how you present it.

You put everything into your work, so give it what it deserves;

Elisabeth is one of my collectors and a mother like myself. Elisabeth became a dear friend of mine after meeting her at a moms retreat. I was so moved by her and her story. Little did I know that I would one day be asked to create a painting in honor of her son Graham. I was touched and it was one of the most beautiful and emotional experiences I ever had. I am so grateful for Elisabeth, for having the courage to be on my podcast and share her story. Fentanyl poisoning is on the rise and there needs to be more awareness. Let’s prevent another tragedy and share her story. This podcast is dedicated to the memory of Graham.

In this episode I share lessons and quotes from the book The War of Art. I talk about resistance, fear and procrastination. Let’s get through these limitations so you can be creative your were meant to be.

Time to let go of all those THINGS that are causing congestion and stagnation in your studio space. I realized a long time ago the importance of letting go of material things to clear the energy of my space and bring in new energy. Everything is so much lighter and just better. We can live happier, simpler, and more conscious lives as creatives just by being more minimalistic.
