What Does it Mean to Live Artfully?

I have been thinking about this quite a fair amount lately. It can mean so many different things to different people. What I find in my (very non-scientific) research, is that it is simply what people do with their free time that brings them joy and purpose.

Have you ever met anyone who just knows how to live? A person who explores the depths of themselves and then in turn the world around them. My quest in writing this blog is to embrace the burning questions on artful living.

Why do I feel the need to create the work I create?

How does it feel and what messages am I trying to convey?

I create art for a living, but it is more than that. I create because it is in my being and if I don’t and ignore my creativity I feel very unwell. It has taken me a VERY VERY long time to come to this understanding.

So in some way, if I can share how I live artfully and tell the stories of other creatives, maybe I can spread some good. And when I say other creatives, I am not specific to artists. People, no matter what their profession, live artfully, and sometimes you just have to look a little closer.

A quiet moment of reflection.
