EP 18: Emma Hill, Bonus Solo Episode: Art at a Crossroads - Art Seeking Soul, Jump Starting with The 100 Day Project.
Hello and Welcome!
Today on the Art Seeker Stories podcast I’m coming to you with a bonus, mini, solo episode.
Truth be told I’m at a cross-roads, my art is shifting and feeling different. I have the idea and the vision, but I can’t grasp it – see it for real. I’m excited but equally, or maybe more so, I’m in fear and I’m scared.
In this episode I’m processing and documenting my ideas. I share with you my bigger picture and how I aim to get there. I’m jump starting the exploration by doing the #100dayproject , to break down my barriers, to put the work in and trust in turn,the rest will come.
My bigger project where everything else works towards is a book and artwork that explores
ART SEEKING SOUL –
For now, my 100 days will start with sketching.
However since recording, I’m thinking I’ll also have one large canvas and make a mark, for 100 days – that can’t be too difficult.
