Tension and desire

This one's for the artists and the shadow artists.

Isn't it crazy how reading these words feels like a soft punch in the knowing?

It's hard to step out into the landslide of online content, this shouty world, to show yourself and what you're making, but it absolutely must be done. The world needs your art, your creative intelligence, your radical urge to express what's inside you and create something that wasn't there before.

Your art, your mind, your work is unique and only you can be brave enough to own it and show it. That kind of bravery inspires the next creative to find the courage to reveal theirs. This is how art and creativity can change the world - and, as we all know, the world needs to be changed by things created from the heart.

Let your desire to express vibrate stronger than the temptation to hide in plain sight.

Thanks for reading.
