Many years ago, I fantasized about being in a prestigious gallery in San Francisco. The art shown there was incredible. I often went to the openings and remembered being awed by the work of one artist in particular. The work was so amazing and his level of imagination felt so beyond what I could come up with, I just had to find out more about it. Of course, I didn’t dare speak to the artist himself, but I found the gallerist that night and asked, “how does he do this?” To my surprise, she said, “he just makes this stuff up!” That’s it I thought? I couldn’t believe her comment but suddenly, it felt like anything was possible. If this artist was just doing what he wants, so can I, and more importantly, so can you!

PS This week’s podcast is my interview with an incredible artist, José Delhart Gonzalez, who takes this accessible approach to creativity, making it easy for all to connect with his work. Some of his most elaborate paintings start on pizza boxes! The work shows introspection and clarity about what matters to him most and it’s powerful. I hope you’ll join me.
