  • Hello, Burnout. It's nice to see you. // My personal experience with, and healing from, burnout.

    30/08/2020 Duração: 33min

    LINKS: The Collective (doors are open through August 31st!)The Alaska RetreatEmilyJeffords.com   Hello, burnout.  We meet again, I see you, I feel you, and I thank you.     Picture a match.  You’re holding it in your hand, maybe lighting candles on a cake, maybe lighting a fire, but you’re holding and it’s getting closer and closer to your finger.  You want to keep going, just one more candle!  But the flame is getting hotter so your heart rate goes up and you move faster to the next candle and your fingers begin to hurt, and then   It’s too late.   You got burned.   You drop the match and kiss your fingertips and feel so silly and also OUCH!   That is burnout.   Burnout is deeply painful, but it is often a result of growth (often, growing too fast).  We allow ego to hop in and take charge -- which leads us to say "I can do that!" waaay too often.  But there are some benefits to burnout too.  It acts as an irrefutable reminder that I do not need to please everyone and solving all problems.  To stop holding pa

  • Art to Print (How to Make $$ With Your Art) with Laurie Anne Gonzalez

    18/08/2020 Duração: 01h16min

    I have a treat for you today! I recorded a conversation with my pal Laurie Anne Gonzalez about creating PRINTS! Photograph or scan? In-house printing or out-sourced printing? Canvas or paper? Limited edition or open edition? How do I get the right file size? What kind of camera or scanner should I use? Do prints devalue your work? We get into ALL THE QUESTIONS.   Prints have been a huge source of revenue for my business and I would absolutely NOT have the healthy studio I do today without offering reproductions of my work. If you're ready to begin or grow this part of your studio practice, I highly recommend Art To Print. Laurie Anne takes you through each and every step of the process -- from easel to print to packaging. It is a thorough, clear, and insightful course and I know it's going to change your business!   Sign up for Art To Print HERE.   Also, THE COLLECTIVE opens for enrollment on Monday!  August 24th - 31st.  JOIN US.  This space is designed to help creatives and artists thrive.   Lear

  • Come Into The Studio: Inside the "Quite Adventure" Collection

    07/08/2020 Duração: 31min

    Visit the collection at emilyjeffords.com   Step into the studio for a bit.  Let's catch up and talk about the new collection of artwork I have created, "Quiet Adventure".   In this episode, I share my process and favorite methods to create and release a collection of artwork.    This body of work came together slowly and gently, a form of meditation and healing over the past 20+ months.  There are paintings in this collection I worked on as my baby was crawling around my feet, others I created as a refuge from my own home as we shelter-in-place.  This body of work was created selfishly as an act of self-care, but it is also for you.  I hope the theme of love and adventure and peace fill you too.    "Quiet Adventure"   I walked through a field.  It was new to me, but I knew it already. The earth smelled like childhood. The grasses clung to my bare feet in familiar ways. The only thing unknown was the landscape.     She was vast and led to places I have not been. Adventure, we call it. Unknowing. But in the un

  • 33. Creating During Covid

    13/04/2020 Duração: 13min

    What does creativity look like during covid-19? ⁣Is it quiet? ⁣Is it lonely? ⁣Is it an escape? ⁣Is it a home within a home?Is it a way to scream without sound? ⁣Is it a balm? ⁣Is it a memory of the past? ⁣Is it hope? ⁣   The role of an artist is to feel and translate the things we are seeing, feeling, and receiving into something we can all see and feel and receive. But, creating during hardship can be hard. Or easy. Or it might make you feel guilty. Or it might bring you peace. Whatever you’re feeling when you step into your home art studio is valid and the world WILL return to normal again soonBecause this time can be especially lonely for many of us, I thought I would read some of the words of our fellow artists and creatives. I hope they bring you some comfort and maybe you feel less alone as we work through this time together.   If you're looking for a little added inspiration and clarity during this time, the Artist's Success Guide is FOR YOU.  A transparent look at growth as a creative entrepreneur, ho

  • 32. Time to Set Up an Inspiring (and Safe) Home Studio

    10/04/2020 Duração: 20min

    A few tips for setting up a functional at-home studio: First and foremost, make sure the supplies you are using are SAFE.  Do not use toxic materials in your home.   I've created a free guide to help with that.  Get the Studio Setup Guide.   Once you're ready to set up your studio space, keep these tips in mind: Make your home studio an easily accessible space but not in a space that will impede normal life.  I bought a little table on Amazon and set it up in the corner of my living room. Have a variety of art supplies on hand.  Feeling free and explorative is always important, but especially right now!  Gather all the mediums you think you might want and bring them into your home studio space.   Tupperware bins.  Keep all the paints and supplies out of reach and contained (especially if you have little ones!)  Jars with lids for all the liquids and to store brushes.  Spaghetti sauce jars, fancy mason jars...  Dedicated cabinets and drawers. You might need to change what or how you create to make working-from

  • What Does This Make Possible? Can COVID-19 Bring Beauty?

    19/03/2020 Duração: 29min

    As concerns about the spread of the coronavirus COVID-19 increase, I wanted to personally reach out to you and offer some honest thoughts.      I understand how scary and uncertain this time can feel, and the news is so loud and deeply unhopeful.     However, though the whole world feels a little (a lot) crazy, I hope that you are able to transform this storm into a season of GROWTH, TRANSFORMATION, and (dare I say) EXPANSION!     I know this pandemic is causing pain across the globe.    People are sick and scared; they are hungry and desperate. I am watching many of my dearest friends who are small business owners scramble and wrestle with some huge questions as they try their best to stay open and profitable while also safe (and I know their story is being repeated a million times over in each of our communities.)  Low-income households and those that work in retail or service industry are feeling another layer of pain and fear through all of this. Heroic medical personnel around the world are literally

  • How Working in COLLECTIONS Changed My Life

    31/01/2020 Duração: 37min

    Imagine creating artwork for weeks, without thinking about selling.  Imagine putting your whole vision into the world clearly and beautifully.  ...And what if there were also eager collectors ready and waiting for your work?  AMAZING, right? When I began my creative career I did what most (if not ALL) artists do: we create something and then sell it.  Create, then sell.  And repeat.  In fact, I did that flow on high speed because I began my career by doing a painting each DAY and selling it the next day!  This is fine for a while, but I soon found that I was creating and hustling far more than I needed to!  Here's what happens when you DON'T work in collections: It can be very easy to create from the WRONG HEADSPACE Creating it for the single sale rather than for the idea.  Creating artwork for $$ rather than the message or vision behind the work Never getting to spend time with your work and feel a sense of ownership over it It can also really mess with your artistic flow to have to interrupt your process to
