What kind of an artist are you?

April 16, 20112 Comments

You know you are creative, you want to make and create things, but where does your true heart lie? It can take a while to find out, but sitting on the fence won’t get you there. Just have a go at everything that interests you (plus things that don’t) and you will know when you get that “homecoming” feeling. That’s life telling you that this is your true path.

For those of you who have asked before, this also includes a bit of biography about me.

It seems that people like my little advice videos, and I’ve been meaning to do one for teenagers for a while, so hear it is. Hope you like it.

More problems? Let me know and I’ll see if I can help. This is about Not worrying about failure – Not worrying about tomorrow – what people think about you and Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll!

No one likes to be criticised. Criticism can make you feel rally small and it can prey on your mind. The first step in dealing with it is to understand why others criticise. See what I think in this video.

Advice for young artists

I get quite a lot of young artists contacting me through Drawing School, asking advice about this or that. This little video is really a message to my younger self. I think I have a lot more to say and will as I go on.

I’ll make other videos for teenagers and college students later. Do make comments about anything else you’d like me to talk about – I do like talking!
