Creative Growth Framework
Blog 1: Identity: Embracing the Artist Within
Have you ever hesitated to call yourself an artist? For many, that label feels heavy, as though it comes with responsibilities or expectations that are hard to shoulder. But here’s the truth: being an artist is simply about creating. It’s about owning the process, bringing your ideas to life, and expressing yourself through your art form.
Take a moment today to say it out loud: “I am an artist.” Write it down. Let it sink in. Identify your art form(s) and start seeing yourself through that lens. This is the foundation of your creative growth—the moment you fully embrace your identity as a creator.
Your art, and the world, are waiting for you to own it.
