Ep.73: Artists Don't Belong In Boxes

Spark Your Inner Fire for Creatives

We don’t belong in boxes, LET ME OUT!! Our varying personas on and off the stage can be confusing to most people (even to us sometimes.) Society wants to put everyone into a box or label, It can give us that feeling like we don't belong in any give group or "box" which can be both confusingly maddening and comforting at the same time. Oddly enough, these inconsistencies are a gift for our creative process if we allow them to be. In this episode: What creative incubation is, The benefits of stepping away from your creative muse even for a few minutes, Inconsistencies of our creative career vs our personal lives, How to combat the idea you'll some day run out of ideas. PS: Oh, and for the magicians and box jumpers out there, I'm not talking about that box, and for those that don't understand the reference, I'm talking about the box the magician cuts the assistant in half in. That box is a box that some artists belong in lol... I can just see the emails now. “All the really good ideas I ever had came to me while I was milking a cow.” -Grant Wood
