YOU.

I snapped this photo while on assignment for Maren at her art studio and it really meant so much to me.  Crazy how as artists sometimes we get caught up in the way  we think others see our work or what others are doing that we sometimes forget that what makes us an artist or what makes the people who admire our work or hire us is just that … us … or YOU.  I’ve really been doing lots of thinking about this lately because it makes me sad when people feel like they have to be one thing or another instead of being the artist that is within them … who cares what everyone else is doing … be YOU.  that is why people love you and your work.  It’s why people are drawn to you.  YOU are unique … a one of a kind …. that is what makes YOU the special and unique person you are …
