What is a Healthy Artist? (Part 01)
How do I practice being a Healthy Artist? Is it even possible? In our first episode we hear from artist Martha Lamont about what she thinks it means to be a 'Heathy Artist'. We hear about letting go of the illusion of control in your art practice, working from where your nervous system is not on fire, and becoming stable enough to make and think clearly. Maintaining balance against the backdrop of art world challenges, toxic thought processes, and stress about financial success.
