When you need some art inspiration
Never forget…
Ain’t nobody you but you. There are millions of websites out there, so many photographers, but only you have your view on the world, your art is going to make it because there’s only one of you and you will find your people who will be obsessed with your work!
One of the best pieces of advice I have gotten is you can’t be an artist if you give up. Everyone is going through it but how you get through it makes you unique and will give you the motivation to continue going because you have made it through hard times! Take a moment to clear your mind and take a breath, this photo helps me to zen myself thinking about how tranquil it would be to be sitting in the car and just taking a moment away from the world
Be confident…
Be confident in your work and be confident in yourself because you are amazing and can make it through!
Don’t forget it is ok to step away from your work and breathe because your best work might happen when you are stressed out of your mind but it is always good to step back! Sometimes we get too zoned in on little details of our work, we forget the larger things that we might have missed if we didn’t step back
When you feel like you have no Instagram followers, you feel like you are not experienced enough, and everyone else is doing better than you, then you can shoot me a message and I will remind you that you are worth the time and effort you are putting into your work and people will see your greatness!
Find your safe place
This is me running away from my work and school to reconnect with the outside
We’re surrounded by artist…
A group of people could have the same building to photograph, recreate, or draw but your vision can be unique! You might choose to get right up next to the building and look up towards the roof, you might focus on the windows, and you might stand so far back the detail in the building disappears and the surrounding nature takes over to outline the building. But, you, you never have to worry that your work will never be needed because your perspective is unique and important to me and to others! Your art inspiration is going to come when your mind is fresh and clear enough to make your new ideas, if your ideas aren’t there yet then doing something low stress like finger painting!
Be inspired by other people’s work, learn, and grow but if you are going to compare yourself to someone look back at yourself! See how far you have come and how well you are doing, other people have had a different journey than you, stay humble and kind help others along your way! We can be the light in this world for ourselves and others, keep working hard, and remember to step back, you’re important and you’re needed:)
