i’ve had several epiphanies surrounding my art practice/art overall recently • i’d like to share my sentiments, but in order to fit the 1-minute attention span format here i’ve boiled it down to a few points • ✨epiphany #1 : the art that i make currently bores me to tears ✨epiphany #2 : i’ve known this for AWHILE, but chose to continue in the same direction for the sake of conjuring whatever modicum of a ‘career’ that I could ✨epiphany #3 : this vicious cycle, & the way i currently make art, is not sustainable ✨epiphany #4 : my only solution to this is to scrap everything, and i mean everything, and start anew ✨epiphany #5 : this process of rediscovering my abilities/styles WILL be time-consuming, & not necessarily capable of monetization (this is probably why i’ve put this off for so long) ✨epiphany #6 : my art does not need to be monetized. it never did. and i must stop approaching it from that perspective. that is what landed me here to begin with • even having ‘boiled this down’, it’s a decent read and there’s so much more i could say 😅 long story short- things are gonna be changing around here. i’d like to get back to making stuff that i like, get back to processes that bring me closer to divine creative energy- to peace and union with the great universal expanse inside of me • and get away from makemakemake earnearnearn mentality • that is all 😅 if you’ve made it this far- thank you for your time & attention 🙏
