What a good piece of advice, Jen! Prompts like this one will always be needed by us, artists full of self-doubt whether permanently or at crucial moments of creation... Thank you!
I wish it wasn’t so, but I think you’re right! This is pointing me exactly in the direction where I need to spend my energy this week. Thanks for that!
Beautiful Jen. Creativity breaks us open. Never too much. Always enough. It comes as it comes. Never to be held back. Only to be released. Through us. Big hugs. THANK YOU 🙏
Thank you for the permission to be selfish seeking out my art. As a mother, a nurse, an entrepreneur.. so many things call my attention. I was left wondering, why do I write? Why does it matter? Today, I can say it’s selfishness wrapped in self love. I am enough and the words are worth the trepidation that at times keep my pen from the page. Lots of love.
A very timely reminder, thank you Jen!
Trepidation is a great word and exactly describes the feeling. I’ve often reduced it to fear and I think this is a more approachable word. Thank you!
I hate that I love, “where there is fear, there is your task.” Damn it!!!
Thanks for the reminders and pep talk. Just what I needed to hear today to get a big project completed with confidence.
Big Truths succinctly condensed
about Creating Art.
The quotes are great, too!
“Create for yourself. Create because you can.”
A very important reminder!

Where the fear, there is your task!

Just what I needed to read today! Thanks a bunch!
Thank you for your words of wisdom.
Loved the way you illustrated point one with point two! Thank you for pressing through “too hard” for my learning and enjoyment.
Really love it; those quotes are incredible too. You also seem to have a knack for timing these things :)
I find this useful in the relation to the ‘out -of-the-comfort box’ actions, art or not. Thank you Jen, it’s brilliant as always ❤️
