Authenticity Among the Noise

What drives your work and the direction of your artistic journey? A lot of the struggles that artists deal with come from areas that ignore or even deny who we really are and what we really want. The problem is, it is very hard to discern who we are and what we really want from the constant, nonstop bombardment of other people’s ideas about what makes a perfect, fulfilled, content, and successful life. I propose we use the concept of authenticity as a base from which to root our exploration of ourselves and what our individual, personal, and unique meaning of success is. Join the conversation about the importance of truth and honesty in your creative pursuits, asking questions like… What is authenticity and why is it important for artists? How can artists find their authentic selves? What are the benefits of creating from an authentic place? How can artists stay true to their authentic selves in their artistic endeavors? And when I say, join the conversation, I mean it. Send me your thoughts and answers to the episode's questions or send your own ideas on art and creativity to share in a future podcast.
