As artists we tend to put a lot of emphasis on the end result. We want the outcome to be the best it can be otherwise why set out to create anything at all? Problem is while we're so focused on the destination we completely miss the joy of the journey. In this weeks Podcast Episode, Clayton Barton and Co-Host Ric Bülow talk about the importance of embracing the process. Ultimately, if you're an artist who's making progress, improving, evolving; that destination will always be out of reach. What you create today will always be trumped by what you create tomorrow. So it's pointless stressing out over reaching perfection. You've got to revel in the imperfections. Learn from them, and remember that often times what you consider an impure characteristic within your work reflects a signature style unique to you. If you don't enjoy the process of creation, there's no point in pursuing it in the first place. So remember to have fun with your art. The outcome isn't as important as you think. -Clayton
