Happy New Year and welcome to my list of manifestations and wishes -- and things I would like us to do more of and STOP doing forever. This list is silly. And it's absolutely not.
Also, we get into the heart and soul of "Do It For The Process" -- which I realized mid-eposode is 10 years old! I began the hashtag #doitfortheprocess in 2025 after a bit of a little tiny breakdown in the corner of the studio, and my life has been forever changed.
But now for the 2025 Ins and Outs!
2025 Ins:
Buying the fancy art supplies because you're using the good stuff regularly these days 👑
Prioritizing your quiet (massive) dreams
Curated studio playlists 🎵
Making good coffee at home
Buying crystals on your birthday 🔮
Books with strong female leads
Foraging for pigment while traveling 🧳
Photos-walks at golden hour
Making a very big deal out of your art ‼️
Handmade ceramics palettes 💅
Craft nights with a friend
Wearing earbuds in art museums 🎧
Reading an affirmation card each morning
✨Romanticizing✨ the process
Outs:
Overthinking every brushstroke 😵💫
Hoarding art supplies
Plastic “wood” frames😮
Staring at screens for inspiration 🙄
Uncomfortable chairs in the studio
Imposter syndrome 🙄
Nasty wine at gallery openings 🤢
Expensive dusty candles (burn them)
Postponing creative dreams for “the right moment”🤡
Fake flowers 😅
Leaving the tops off your paint tubes 🫣
Perfectly curated feeds 😑
Using toxic materials (no, babes, it’s not worth it) 😨
Whispering abt your art and feeling sad when no one buys it 🫥
