It’s Never Too Late to Begin - With West Coast Artist Susan Salvati

Our creativity doesn’t have an expiry date. Every life experience has been preparing you to create the art only you can make.This week on the Colour Me Happy Podcast, I’m joined by one of my dear friends, Susan Salvati, joining us from the beautiful west coast of Canada. We talk about what it means to pursue your passions at any age and why it’s never too late to begin. Susan shares how years of life experience, raising a family, and following unexpected paths have shaped the artist she is today. We dive into creative blocks, letting go of perfectionism, and embracing the freedom that comes from creating for yourself. If you’ve ever thought you’ve missed your chance, this conversation is the reminder you need that your best creative years may still be ahead of you.2 Takeaway Tips:It’s never too late to follow what lights you up.Your life experiences are not detours. They are the foundation of the artist and person you’re becoming. There is no deadline on living a creative life.Stop waiting for the perfect moment and just start creating. Create the small piece. Fill the sketchbook. Make the messy first attempt. Every page and every painting brings you one step closer to the work you’re meant to make.
