In the studio lately, I have been really leaning in to listen to that small quiet voice inside, to hear what it wants me to paint. Today I clearly heard the message, "Say Less" and then I painted this new piece.  So often we say more than we need to in an effort to feel seen, understood, accepted and loved. The truth is that you don't need to say a thing to be any of these things. You are a radiant being, more than enough just the way you are.   It's ok to say less, to stop trying to explain yourself - it might even be the thing that helps you let even more of your beauty and light out...

There is no other way work of artistic worth can be done. And the occasional success, to the striver, is worth everything. The most regretful people on earth are those who felt the call to creative work, who felt their own creative power restive and uprising, and gave it neither power nor time.
