- It is easy to think looking at the social media accounts of your favourite artists that they didn’t go through a period of growth and learning a the beginning of their careers, but that’s where you’re wrong. Every artist will tell you that the first 5-6 years of their career were filled with doubt, uncertainty and hard work. If you want to make a career out of it you have to persevere.
- We’re at a place in history now where we can see people develop their skills in real time on social media. Consider the artists you have been following over the past number of years and how much they have improved by continually creating and sharing their work.
- You have to dive into the abyss of making shitty work until you can make better work. The only way to improve is to practice.
- If you are feeling uninspired, think about what is weighing on you and let that be your inspiration. Maybe you don’t have any new ideas or motivation, allow that to be the starting point in your creative process.
