Reading about how “shame” effects an artist-
As children we are shamed by people who are afraid of exposing a truth.
Artist’s uncover truth and shed light on uncomfortable subject matter,
and this is often why some of the greatest works of art receive the most criticism.
Interesting, I’ve been “shamed” a lot in life.
Somehow I’ve managed to ignore it, and blissfully continue creating.
I’m not afraid to be laughed at, if it means I get to do what I love.
I am shameless!
(Right at this moment of discovery while reading the chapter in The Artist’s Way)
I look out from the balcony off my living room and see a 15 story Showtime billboard advertising, ”Shameless.”
Wow! God has an awesome sense of humor! …and sends a clear sign!
