HEALING my relationship with CREATIVITY (week 1: GROUND ZERO) // cozy week of art vlog

[@lidiakrajewskaart]

Thank you for sharing your feelings and experiences with us! It really helps to know that I’m not that only one who has ups and downs with my own creativity. I feel very encouraged and going to create something now 💚

[@allisonaletha]

I’m so glad this video was encouraging for you!! I hope you have an AMAZING time creating something!! 🥰💛

The first minute of this video perfectly describes why I gave up pursuing art. Love turned into stress and even now I still love and admire art but have a negative headspace when I create. Allowing myself to "play" with the materials will help but it's hard to let go of perfectionism and those standards that were set early. The love and excitement you share for art and it is why I love this channel and. You inspired me to try gouache and be more playful in art. Thank you for that, I have a long way to go but thank you for starting the journey. The showing up part, I need work on.

[@allisonaletha]

I most definitely understand!! It’s devastating when we fall out of love with our art. 😔 Oooo the topic of perfectionism is going to be in the week 3 video!! It’s a topic I’m very passionate about (even if my take on it might be a bit unpopular 😅)

people say do what you love for a job, but the pressure and stress def can ruin what you love to do if a person isnt careful.

[@allisonaletha]

I just stumbled upon your channel, and I'm someone who's just about to turn their art passion into a career! It will be wonderful to see your journey through this, and thank you for reminding everyone who needs it (including yourself and me) that, above everything, art shouldn't be just our job or a chore, it should be fun and bring us joy too 🤍

[@allisonaletha]

Ahhh best of luck to you as you begin turning your art into your career!! I hope this little video series helps you learn from my mistakes and avoid the pitfalls I’ve gone through. 😅 It can definitely be a struggle to maintain a good balance between creativity and career, but I absolutely believe it’s possible!! 💛
