do stuff. be clenched, curious. not waiting for inspiration’s shove or society’s kiss on your forehead. pay attention. it’s all about paying attention. attention is vitality. it connects you with others. it makes you eager. stay eager

I am an artist

"Back when I was starting out, someone at a party asked me what I did, and I said, 'I'm an artist.' And a friend of mine said, 'Faith, would you please stop telling people you're an artist? You're not an artist. You're an art teacher.' I thought: That's interesting that she thinks she can tell me who I am. I'm the one who determines when I'm an artist. And that's right here, right now."

Claming the title artist or photographer or ceramacist or song writer, or dancer is a big bold step. I'm running a series of one day workshops and sereis which all help putting this part of your life more centre stage. More info here. Ongoing small coaching groups here.
