Fresh Starts and Old Ruts: How to Navigate Creativity's Ups and Downs

Teresa is on the cusp of a fresh start as she moves into a new home and studio, while Joy is in a creativity slump. In this episode, Teresa and Joy talk about the up and down phases that exist for all artists and how to navigate seasons of creativity. In their “Last Thing I Wrote” segment, Joy brings quotes from recent books that inspired her, and Teresa is writing about roadkill and antique books. During the closing Gen X segment, we learn which of the two Artsy Types used encyclopedias, owned a Swatch and had the “elite” yellow Walkman. Instagram follower and artist Suz Matthews and the Cowgirl Artists of America get shoutouts.
