Are you trying to get out of a rut in your art practice, feeling like your studio sessions are producing a bunch of ‘nothing’, or disheartened that you are not seeing more progress in your artwork?

Yep, Bec and Michele have been there too (quite recently in some cases!), and in this episode they are pulling out all the insights, mind-tricks and approaches that keep them showing up and moving forward.

We’re all wired differently, so it’s about finding the right switch to fire you up, get the creativity flowing and make it fun—whether it’s playing the rebel, banning all pressure and expectation from the studio, seeking out surprise, or experimenting with the power of the incremental.

Tune in for a creative tune-up!

You may have noticed we missed an episode last week and that is because Michele is under the weather and has lost her voice.

So today we put together a special episode focussed on the power of your authenticity as an artist. This is something we've talked about from a number of different angles, and we wanted to bring these ideas together—to dig into what we mean when we talk about your authentic self being the foundation for your art making, and also your art business.

I hope our conversation can spark some different perspectives and perhaps deeper questions for you to explore:

• Does my art practice really reflect my unique values and ways of being in the world?
• Are there parts of me I'm holding back from my art, and why?
• Is how I show up in the studio in alignment with how I show up to share and sell my work?

The last few episodes Bec and Michele have been talking about the practice of failing in the art studio. But what about when the challenges are coming from outside the studio?

In the lead up to Michele’s recent exhibition, the universe threw a LOT of challenges her way–from unexpected changes to the exhibition itself, to the flu, falling trees and a rat named Garry. How did she fight to achieve her vision? And, perhaps more importantly, how do we judge the times when we want to push through versus when it would serve us better to pull back?

This conversation ranges across tenacity and turkey sandwiches–it’ll all make sense by the end!

Bec and Michele are doing a 30 day art challenge, but not the kind of challenge you might see on Instagram… this is about deliberately failing (proper, ugly failing), making bold and risky moves that don’t work out, and creating pieces that leave you thinking, ‘well that’s definitely not it!’.

This episode digs into what this kind of ‘practising failure’ looks like on a day to day basis in the art studio, and the multiple layers of enquiry, understanding and possibility it can uncover. Michele talks about important questions to frame the process and how to guide yourself moment-to-moment without getting stuck on the idea of having one vision, one style, one feeling forever.

Michele is hot off the official opening event of her solo exhibition and she has THOUGHTS to share. OriginArt members and other artist friends came out to support and celebrate at the opening, and being amongst ‘our tribe’ highlighted (again) how our way of seeing the world and how we spend our time can seem pretty weird to ‘normal’ people.

Michele and Bec dig into the practical realities of being an outsider when it comes to the work and path we’ve chosen to pursue, and what it takes in this primarily solo effort to persist and thrive. One of the big challenges is overturning what we may have learned about failure as something to be avoided. Michele explains how she views failure as not only unavoidable, but an absolutely critical part of a successful creative process. And she dishes on all the ‘sucky’ art she made along the way (which is still documented on her phone!).

Michele’s stunning solo art exhibition opened the day of this conversation, and though it will take some time to unpack all the details and lessons of this monumental effort, for now Bec is really interested in the growth she has witnessed in Michele over the last month or so of intense studio focus.

Michele talks about how an earlier version of herself would have crumbled under the pressure, but this time she found a way to rise, and rise again, in the face of each challenge and opportunity throughout the experience. What made the difference? A core conviction, backed up by determination and a success-focused mindset, and balanced by a willingness to relinquish control.

This is an inspiring and encouraging conversation about what can be possible for each of us.

This week Bec has created a special episode–this is an encouragement tonic in audio form and is just the prescription if you are going through one of those times we ALL go through, when we feel uncertain, unsteady or unmotivated around our art.

This is a compilation of Bec’s favourite Unearthing Art clips to remind you:

• what it means to be an artist
• that it’s ok (even inevitable) for things to take longer or turn out differently than we expect
• the pleasure of making peace with the creative process
• ways to shift stuck and feel good about showing up for yourself
• and more…

We hope you find this useful and (just like Bec will be doing!) feel free to play this whenever you need a little encouragement tonic in your art studio.

This is a special episode with highlights from Michele’s week-long Artist Breakthrough Blueprint event. With more than four hours of teaching, we couldn’t include the detailed explanations and practical exercises, but this selection will hopefully give some fresh ideas to consider for your art life. Michele digs into:

• creating a business that you really (no, REALLY) love
• the most common goals that growth-minded artists aspire to
• what are the opportunities for artists now?
• how important is genre to selling art?
• what do we need to know about the buyer cycle to make better business decisions?
• how do breakthroughs accelerate our art and business?
• how do we use breakthroughs to build a bridge between our now, and where we want to be?
• the critical decision that successful artists (and businesses) make.

If you’d like to make sure you don’t miss the next time Michele offers her free Artist Breakthrough Blueprint teaching, jump on the reminder list here.
