Episode 78: Lighten Up! Here’s How to Make Your Art Fun Again

Honest Art Podcast with Jodie King

As adults, we’ve lost our playful spark. It’s been buried under expectations, self-doubt, and the pressure to create. But it’s time to bring the fun back into our art so we can dig deep and make our most honest work yet!

In this episode, we’ll talk about things like:

• How to lean into play and stop self-editing

• Why showing up to play takes away the pressure of creating

• A few tools and techniques you can use to help you make your art more unique (READ: give you more space to play)

Let’s ditch perfectionism and the restrictions we’ve put on our creativity. It’s time to have fun making art again!
