how to be an artist
stay loose. learn to watch snails. plant impossible gardens. invite someone
dangerous to tea. make little signs that say yes! and post them all over
your house. make friends with freedom & uncertainty. look forward to dreams.
cry during movies. swing as high as you can on a swingset, by moonlight.
cultivate moods. refuse to "be responsible." do it for love. take lots of
naps. give money away. do it now. the money will follow. believe in magic.
laugh a lot. celebrate every gorgeous moment. take moonbaths. have wild
imaginings, transformative dreams, and perfect calm. draw on the walls. read
everyday. imagine yourself magic. giggle with children. listen to old
people. open up. dive in. be free. bless yourself. drive away fear. play
with everything. entertain your inner child. you are innocent. build a fort
with blankets. get wet. hug trees.
write love letters.
