#57: Don't Find Your Voice, Your Voice Will Find You

One of the most common sources of anxiety for budding creatives is the struggle to find a unique voice. Should you spend your apprentice years by imitating the masters?

We'll hear some thoughts from photographer Meg Loeks and multidisciplinary artist Claire Luxton.

Cummings poems to discovering a style of my own. Material Mentioned in This Episode:Why Great Writers Steal Ideas | With Brandon Sanderson#45: Meg Loeks - The Emotional Power of Self Portraits, Inspiration vs. Imitation, Photographing Chickens, Refusing to Rush, and MoreClaire Luxton || From Fine Art Portraits to Poetry - Exploring the Interplay of Mediums and IdeasKent Williams Interview | Beautiful Bizarre FOR EXCLUSIVE CREATIVITY TIPS, MUSINGS, AND EXERCISES, SUBSCRIBE TO THE ALWAYS CHOOSE ORANGE NEWSLETTER: https://www.alwayschooseorange.com
