A New Map

You know that awful art work you have hidden away? The one you conceived with such excitement, and began with such high hopes?

Now, it languishes, out of sight, and you feel guilty, mad, or sad any time you think of it.

What artists with works like this need to face is whether their life is following the same pattern.

Those early ideas, the ones that don’t feel good anymore, can be tossed. Yesterday’s map made sense at one point in the journey, but your destination has changed. Or needs to change, otherwise why would you be stuck?

Look at your art (and life) with fresh eyes and ask, What next?

Then plunge in and do something ~ anything ~ to get your energy flowing again.

Getting There
