If you're trying to control your art, you're cutting off the magic.

Copying your reference photos line-for-line is boring AF. Here’s how to use them without losing your voice. Many artists start with reference photos because that’s what we were taught: paint the flower yellow, the grass green, the cow black and white. And while that’s fine for learning, it’s a fast track to creating lifeless art that looks like everyone else’s. The truth is, reference photos are meant to be a starting point, not a destination. If you copy them exactly, you erase the most important

I didn’t go to art school, and I learned a LOT the hard way. When I picked up a paintbrush at 35, I had no training, no YouTube tutorials, and no clue what I was doing.

If all you can say about your art is how you made it, you’re missing the point. Process isn’t connection. And connection is everything. Too many artists default to the “recipe list” when asked about their work. “I used bright colors, layered some texture, tried a new medium …” That’s safe. That’s surface-level. That’s BORING. In today’s episode, I’m calling out the truth: “good enough” art is dead art. Social media pressures, perfectionism, and fear of vulnerability can sneak in and steal the soul
