yes the f*ck you can
yes the f*ck you can
How many times have you been in a store and picked up something you had to have, checked the price, and said, "I can make this myself" and put it back? How many of you have made that very thing? I bet that not many of you have said yes, and those that have are very proud of their piece of work.
I've always used that opportunity as an artistic challenge. How can I replicate this thing that I want and make it even better? I have learned many new techniques over the years by experimenting and creating things for friends and family. My favorite thing to do is coerce friends and family into doing these projects with me. Most of them will say they do not have an artistic bone in their body. When, in reality, everyone does! Most of the time, it's an illusion. Nothing is perfect when you look up close. I dread hearing the words, "I definitely can't make that." So I set up the space, crack open a bottle of wine, play some music, and say, "yes, the f*ck you can."
For years now, I have always given away my art and creations. After many years of family and friends nagging and encouraging me to sell my art, I have finally made the jump to do so. Welcome to a vulnerable but super passionate part of my life. I hope you are inspired by something you see or the very least, enjoy browsing my creations. Let me know what you think!
