“How to be an Artist”

How to be an artist

text reads:

“How to be an Artist.
Stay loose. Learn to watch snails. Plant impossible gardens.
Invite someone dangerouse to tea. Make little signs that say “YES!”
and post them all over your house. uncertainty. Look forward to dreams. Cry during movies.
Swing as high as you can on a swingset, by moonlight. Cultivate moods.
Refuse to “be responsible”. Do it for love. Take lots of naps. Give money away.
Do it now. The money will follow. Believe in magic. Laugh a lot.
Celebrate every gorgeouse moment. Take moonbaths.
Have wild imaginings, transformative dreams, and perfect calm.
Draw on the walls, read every day. Imagine yourself magic. Giggle with children.
Listen to old people. Open up. Drive in. Be Free. Bless Yourself.
Drive away fear. Play with everything. Entertain your inner child.
You are innocent. Build a fort with blankets.
Get wet. Hug trees. Write love letters.”
