Tera's wish

being an artist

What is an artist? Is it someone who wears all black and has gallery showings? Is it someone who was born knowing how to draw and paint or sing and dance? Can you learn to be an artist if you weren't born with it?

What brings inspiration to artists? If you are going through a creative drought, what can bring you out of it? On these pages I'll explore all of these questions and challenge you to come up with answers of your own.

resources every artist should know about
why not be bold?
the trouble with perfection
claim your power
getting through slumps
born an artist?
you are in control
getting started again when your creativity stalls . . .
what is an artist, anyway?
a thought about being an artist
losing steam: how to get back to work
trusting the process
the courage to create
art guilt
you are worthy of the time you need for your art
being appreciated
no compromise
in praise of mistakes
be wild
the fabulousness of imperfection
