🎨🫧 Your Art And Your Inner Child 🫧🎨

I’m posting this here bc when I put it on TikTok it did the thing where it doesn’t push it out so it got like 2 views in 24 hours. :’)

However, I also felt more comfortable talking about this here the more I thought ab it bc I feel like we are a lil bit more candid ab this kinda stuff over here.

I like this meme a lot because it really does kind of just become one of those things where there’s a lot of truth to it even though it’s silly.

I feel like I make my best work when I mess around just for the sake of it. I stress too much about the technical stuff and how to be marketable when truly if we were talking to tiny me, she’d be stoked I was still making anything at all.

... Read moreExploring your artistic journey often involves tapping into your inner child, a process that can lead to genuine creativity and fulfillment. Many artists stress about marketability and technical skills, forgetting the joy of creation itself. Embracing playfulness in art can lead to unexpected and delightful outcomes. For instance, consider the joy in coloring outside the lines or using unconventional materials, such as crayons, to bring your visions to life. When you reconnect with this playful spirit, you unlock new perspectives that can radically enhance your artistic expression. Art is not just about the final product; it’s about the process, the exploration, and the freedom to express your true self. Remember, your younger self would be thrilled to see you creating without boundaries. So, grab those crayons and let your imagination run wild – your best work might just be on the horizon!
