My Art is My Voice Podcast. Art Is Trifficult (Why Making Isn’t Easy)

Art Is Trifficult (Why Making Isn’t Easy) What if the challenge of making art isn’t something to avoid—but something to understand?In this episode of My Art is My Voice, Rebecca and Tom explore the idea of “trifficult”—a word that captures the strange balance between things being both tricky and difficult at the same time.This conversation moves through the real experience of being an artist:– Why work that comes easily doesn’t always feel valuable– The difference between adding and subtracting in different mediums (like clay vs. painting)– How your unique “hand” shows up through imperfection– The tension between working alone and showing up in public spaces like gallery openingsThey also reflect on:– Flow state and what it feels like to be fully in the work– The pressure of “should” and how it shapes creative decisions– How sales can affect your sense of identity as an artist– The gap between the idea of making (like working outside) and the reality of itAt its core, this episode is about accepting the complexity of the creative process—where difficulty, uncertainty, and imperfection are not problems to solve, but part of the work itself.Because making art isn’t about getting it right—it’s about staying in it.🎧 My Art is My Voice is a podcast about creativity, identity, and the lived experience of being an artist.Subscribe to follow new episodes.instagram @myartismyvoicepodcastemail [email protected] Danger's Website: rebeccadanger.comTom Ferry's Website: tomferrystudio.comFarmette Fresh Website: farmettefresh.com
