I've always been pretty stubborn about creating the work I've wanted to create versus creating work I think what people want and over my 20 years at this, so fortunate to get clients that say "Samm, we trust you". I'm at the crossroads of wanting to dive deeper, create messier, more raw and to let go of stereotypes of perfection. I just watched Moonage Daydream over the weekend and Bowie put all these floating thoughts that keeps me awake at 3am into words and it's something that I think every artist has the ever internal battle with, "But I wasnt allowing myself the service of being who I really am as an artist. I'd given myself dreadful parameters in confining myself to merely what I presumed people wanted. I never wanted to do this. I never wanted to be out there pleasing people. I wanted to be really stubborn and have people like what I like. Not give them what they like." It's funny we just post on social media now to ultimately please people and most days I don't know what to post because it's a overwhelming catalog to sort though, I get decision fatigue and over think what people may like. But here's a photo I edited today and I'm not going to sit on it because I really like it. x
