Create what you wish existed.

This statement is one I keep in mind when creating new artwork, but it’s also more than that. It’s hard to create in a vacuum. There is a saying that goes something like, “You can’t use up creativity. The more you use it, the more you have.” I think this is true beyond the individual. As a creative, surrounding yourself with other creative people is both energizing and essential. When I found myself without enough of a creative community, I created one.

Meet some of the inspiring creatives I have the privilege of calling my friends. Some of us have been able to meet in person, others are friends I’ve gotten to know online and hope to see in person someday. In no particular order:
