I don’t know where it came from.
This idea that everything you do must be 100% original and you must pull it out from the depths of your being.
It isn’t really you, good, original, authentic…unless you create something that has never been made or done before.
Can we just be real for a moment?
We all inspire and encourage one another even if you don’t realize it.
We can be inspired by magazines, movies, music, friends, paintings, museums, travel, architecture, the human body, dance, nature, sculpture, color…anything.
Anything.
One thing leads to another to another to another.
Creativity goes on and on.
D0 you know that is is limitless?
D0 you?
Do you know that with all your good ideas and creativity that there.is.more.in.you.
There is more!
I promise.
Do you want to hold onto your creativity because you think others will steal it, copy it and make it less of yours?
Do you hold tight without realizing that you have beauty in your life because others shared their beauty.
Their creativity
Their light
Their words
Their art
Their passion
Their process.
Do you not want to share who inspires you because then maybe people will realize that all of your ideas and inspiration came from in you AND around you?
Why would this ever be something to hide?
I think sharing who you admire that makes beauty is powerful.
Sharing who inspires your creativity is freeing.
With freedom comes more beauty and more creativity.
I can’t wait to share with you what artists I admire and the places I find inspiration.
I hope you will join me in Studying Under The Masters {becoming an apprentice}.
This course will change how you look at your art and the ones that inspire you.

Beautifully said! I can’t wait for this new course to begin. I know it will be so inspiring!
What you’ve so eloquently stated here about the influences and inspirations that feed our creativity is exactly why I signed up for this course. I am constantly inspired and awed by the work of the masters on the creative path, and I really want to delve into their mysterious way of seeing.
I am so excited for this class! ( I even accidentally signed up twice! ) LOL I really think this is going to profoundly change my painting style, and the way I think about it! Bring it! Blessings to all of the artists who are involved with this! xoxoxox
Dear Jeanne,
I signed up a few weeks ago. I think the mails are going to my husbands e-mail…. If you already sent something, perhaps you can send this to me (schneidersabine@yahoo.com). Thanks a lot! I am looking forward to this wonderful class!
Greetings from Germany, Sabine
Oh my goodness – Yes! Thank you for saying this.
