I need to be real with everyone, continuing to make art after what I've been through hasn't been an easy road. I'll show you the ways I continued to stay inspired and fill the well during creative fallow periods so that way you can get through it too.

🎹 Like the music in the background? It’s by my amazing partner Wesley Jackson. I used clips of his instrumental work in this video.

Thank you for being this incredibly vulnerable. It's hard when difficult times steal your passions. I'm so glad you've found a path away from there

I'm so glad it resonated with you! I was shaking with anxiety my first night editing this and almost walked away from the video entirely. But really happy I didn't. The path away was a long and meandering one but really glad i found it! 💕

I just finished going through The Artist's Way last month. It taught me some things about myself that I hadn't realized. I plan to revisit it in the future.

Amazing! Did you get through the book in 12 weeks? Or were there any things that were hard to do in the timeline for you? It’s definitely worth revisiting!

@@MelMitchJackArt I got through it in about 14 weeks. There were some things that I didn't do, but I tried to.
