“Art is the ultimate goal. It saves our souls and makes us live happily.”
I’d love to share this amazing and inspirational TED Talk with all you artists and non-artists out there. Korean author Young-ha Kim discusses why we stop creating and how we can start creating again.
This can perhaps help you kick start the motivation you need to keep up your artistic endeavors. We all need it sometimes. I lost my artistic ambitions after graduating art school and it took me a year or so to get it back. I wish I had found this video at the time-it makes me sad to know I wasted a year of potential.
