 I didn't get in the position I am in art by sitting at home and thinking about what I might do someday. Hey everybody, 2017 is closing out and it has been a busy, crazy, chaotic, but productive and really good year. And one of the things that we're most proud of is our featured artist video series. I feel like every person has an urge to do something creative. I feel like it's like part of being just a balanced person. I have moments where I'm like, this is it, this is it. And when I made my first drip sculpture, I had that. Looking forward, we're really excited to keep extending this series so that we can travel all over to wherever you might be to capture your work and showcase it to the world. I think the most important thing in art, if you really want to stand out, is to be original. Stop worrying about so much what other people want. Just create art that is for you. I mean, you can sew a quilt and it would look like complete shit when you finished it, but you feel like accomplished. Like I made that and it's ugly, but I made that. Art is visual, art is beautiful, but it's also about ideas. And so it's so nice for us to be able to showcase the artist's voice through this video series. I do lots of different things and a lot of it is using different art techniques, but at the end of the day, it's all photographic based. So is that a camera? Just a guide. In the new year, you'll have about one featured artist video to look forward to every month and we're starting January off with a bang. Lots more to come. Stay tuned and happy new year. Like as an artist, we're bearing our souls, right? And that takes practice, but I think if we have that community of trusted friends or even just one trusted friend who you know you can be your most vulnerable, your ugliest, your worst self and your best self, if you have that person that you can literally expose everything to, that's what you need to be an artist.
