Hey, before we jump in, I have a question for you. Do you spend more time thinking about making art than actually making it?

Start things that you never finish. Make work and then stack it against the wall facing away from you so you don't have to look at it.

If any of that sounds familiar, I want to talk to you. I'm developing a program right now specifically for artists dealing with self-doubt and

creative blocks. And to make it actually helpful, I want to understand what's really hard for you right now.

So I'm looking for artists to interview, to talk with. This is purely research. There's no pitch. It's

just me wanting to know what's going on with you in your studio.

And I am happy to answer your questions about creative confidence in exchange.

You start another one. You get partway through that one. You abandon that one, and then you

start another one. Before you know it,

your studio is filled with unfinished work and you have more paintings in progress than you have

completed pieces. And every single time you start something new, there's this little voice that says,

this is it. This time it's going to be different. This time I will finish it. But since the pattern
