Inspirational Resources for Artists

By Renee Phillips Leave a Comment

You can learn all the best tips and strategies for becoming a successful artist; however, if you lack the motivation to take action they won’t help. Many artists have expressed to me they are so depressed to a point where they stop creating art. It’s not always easy to maintain a level of inspiration that sustains you as a creative individual. If you’re going through a difficult time now, I’ve put together a collection of articles — “Inspirational Resources for Artists” — all written with the intention of rekindling that powerful source of inspiration.

As an artist’s career advisor and coach, often the best feedback I can receive after a consultation may be “I’m now inspired to take my career forward”. Hopefully, you will find what you need in this article to inspire you!
