Are you someone who isn’t making art… because deep down, you think it only matters if it makes you famous?

Maybe you imagine that you can’t really be the kind of artist you want to be — unless some distant billionaire decides to buy your work, feature it in a gallery, or name-drop you on some trend list.

If that’s what your brain has internalized as “success,” no wonder you’re stuck.

Here’s the truth:

It’s time — today, right now — to divorce your art practice from the toxic values of the art world.

Because if you’re waiting for that world to give you permission to make art, you’re going to be waiting forever.

And in the meantime?

You’re denying yourself the life you’re meant to live — the life of a creator.

A life that honors beauty, expression, presence, and truth.

A life that isn’t about performance or product, but about staying in motion. About staying alive.

But what if I want to make money from my art?

That’s valid. And I’ll be honest — I do too.

But here’s the paradox:

The only way to eventually make money from your art in a sustainable, soul-aligned way… is to release your grip on that outcome entirely.

You have to make art for you.

Because it matters.

Because it brings you back to yourself.

Because it’s what you were born to do.

Then, and only then, can your art breathe enough to take its own shape — and maybe even support you in return.

Reclaim your practice from perfectionism and pressure

You don’t need to earn the title of “artist.”
You don’t need a gallery show, a publishing deal, or a huge Instagram following.

You just need to begin.

Let your practice be private, sacred, unmarketable.
Let it be weird. Let it be yours.

Because the moment you stop asking for permission is the moment you start making real art.

And if this is where you’re stuck — between the dream and the doing — I want you to know: you’re not broken.

You’re just waiting to remember who you are.

And I can help.
