The Empowered Artist: 
Why I do this.

I am driven to understand how people change.
 Maybe it's because I often think that I can do better, try harder, be more creative, be more loving, be more sensitive, 
or be in better shape.
Or perhaps it's because there is so much that I want to learn (learning something new is making a change). 
I want to understand myself: my fears, my insecurities, my dreams.
I want to understand my relationships: with myself, with others, with my artwork.
I want to challenge myself to go past my self-limiting beliefs,
to RISK,
to be UNCERTAIN,
to FAIL,
and to keep going and NOT LET MY FEARS HOLD ME BACK.
