What has been the most interesting are the ways in which the universe yields to you when you declare to yourself and the world that you are an artist and mean it.
When things seem down, you keep creating, when things are good, you keep creating. You do this to show the universe that you are indeed the artist you say you are. After a while, in the most unexpected times, the god momentum which has taken over starts attracting people, resources, ideas 💡, and muses.
You begin to create things you never thought were possible. You find out how strong you are made and how resilient you truly are. You realize though, that that strength, and endless flowing of creative ideas comes from the original declaration. “I AM AN ARTIST” This declaration mixed with consistent creation everyday is where the alchemy flows and where the magic is made. It is what makes the shuffling back and forth from the conscious to subconscious realms possible.

THE ARTIST & HER WORK: ELIZABETH CATLETT
Elizabeth Catlett (1915-2012) lived a storied life. From a young age, she knew she wanted to be an artist, and pursued her dreams by receiving a BA in Art from Howard University in 1935.
She married Charles White (another legacy artist), and together they moved to NYC, where their circle of friends included the likes of Loïs Mailou Jones, Charles Alston, Aaron Douglas, Jacob Lawrence, and Langston Hughes.
In 1946, the pair moved to Mexico, where Catlett was a guest artist at the printmaking collective Taller de Gráfica Popular (TGP). This was a formative time in her practice, as her work became increasingly sociopolitical. She began spending time with Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo, and David Siqueiros and was committed to representing strength and struggle in her work. During the Red Scare of the 1950s, her activism and work with TGP came under investigation by the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) and the U.S. embassy in Mexico. She was declared an "Undesirable Alien" and was prevented from returning to the States. By 2002, her citizenship was reinstated, and she became a celebrated artist around the world. Images:

Friends, what?? What’s society6 doing?
While I have loved this platform for a long time, it’s not really feasible for me to give them 60-155 a year for the opportunity to make $0.40 on a pair of socks once in a while. I appreciate they want to limit lower quality designs, but this makes it difficult to suggest society6 to other artists, let alone justify it for myself. For me the only incentive these paid plans have is, “we won’t delete your stuff”.
I’ve opened my s6 shop in 2018 and have had to send people to my page in order for things to be found. Im so sad today looking at the catalogue of content that I won’t be able to offer anymore because theyre going to delete it all unless I give them $13 a month. I’m debating still if it’s worth that much just to preserve the catalogue of work and progress over the years.
So ….

In “The Artists’ Way” Julia Cameron is adamant about prescribing weekly artists dates to take time to be present and heal your artistic soul.
This week I decided to go to a rooftop spot in the city that always brings me joy and peace. I did nothing but allow my self to experiment with sounds and play on my #mpclive2
[Shoutout to Akai Pro]
I’m glad I took some time for myself to do this because normally I wouldn’t. It was a stressful week and I was not in the mood to create or go to a different borough iykyk.
I found my flow there and for a few hours, release from all my worries and anxieties. It was dopeful.
