Good artists copy.

Great artists steal.

Master artists get stolen from.

[Clint Watson @clintavo]

When you call the one consciousness, the Tao, God, The Force, "Master", then you begin to understand why the only way to create a Masterpiece, the "Master's piece", is to allow your self to completely disappear, so that the Master may take control and guide your hands.

[Clint Watson @clintavo]

Our society glorifies discipline.

But to create art...to create Magic, what you want is Devotion.

Devotion, not discipline.

When you feel the light in your soul burn bright, you have found your truth.

Devote yourself to it.

[Clint Watson @clintavo]

Consciousness is the part of God that lives within us. Qualia is the point.

Art is the ultimate expression of the insatiable human hunger to create.

Its purpose is to send inspiration and energy to other humans across space and time

"everything important has already been said. But nobody was listening. So we have to say it again."

@kevin2kelly has done a great job "saying it again" in his new book! He, @iam_draculaura_ & @clintavo discussed on the latest BoldBrush Show!

Art Coaches are always harping on "people buy stories" & telling artists they need to spend more time sharing their story.

There is a nuance to this that most people & coaches miss, here's where they go wrong & how to do it right.

There are 5 stories you tell about your art:

If you’re tired of these Instagram changes that most creators don't want, we’re launching a network that works like the OG Instagram. Chronological feed. Focus on beautiful photography. No attempt to be TikTok.

Everyone is wondering what @elonmusk is going to do with Twitter.

Twitter could be far better than it is today, especially for artists, creators, businesspeople and founders.

Here's what I'd do to innovate, make it 10X better for users and profitable for whoever owns it:

We built a new feature in Jan called "FASO Direct Pay" that let's art buyers check out in our cart & then pay the artist directly (for artists with no Stripe or Paypal set up). It appears to have generated an additional approx $95K for artists so far in it's first 3 weeks or so.

[Clint Watson @clintavo]

People prefer to buy directly from the artist as opposed to buying through a gallery.

You can use that to your advantage in the online Sovereign Artist Era.
