How to stay motivated as an artist — start with your identity! In the first episode of The euCreativ Show, we (Josh and Chris) discuss artistic motivation, how to become the artist you want to be, and how our experiences helped turn us into the artists we are today.

A great first podcast you guys. This was a lot of fun to listen to as I did my warm-ups at the easel.
Thank you! This podcast is one of the more fun “business projects” I’ve ever tackled, and it’s an honor to be able to do something helpful with Chris. Stay tuned for more!
