    A few years ago, I felt totally stuck with my work. I wanted to create exciting abstract landscapes but I had no idea how to do it.
    I became so discouraged that I stopped painting for a while. I wish I had known that there was actually nothing wrong with me.
    I wish I had known that the artist we are meant to be is already inside us.
    Your soul (or your intuition if you prefer) already knows what to do. You are getting in the way. You are thinking and worrying and stressing and projecting. You are looking at a failed painting and making it mean something about you. And that's why you get stuck with your art.
    But you can fix it!
    In this video, I explain how I got unstuck. The same process will work for you. I don’t know what your art future looks like - but your soul does. Let it find its way!
    I am on a mission to help artists find their own unique voice and make exciting, original artwork that is truly unique. If this sounds exciting, join my weekly artist's newsletter at www.louisefletcherart.com/new....
    Each week, I share tips, tricks, advice, and inspiration to help you take your art to the next level.

    Wow - that was unexpectedly emotional! This, right here, is part of my problem. I spend so much time watching CZcams videos of other artists that I’m unable to establish my own style because I’m wanting to be like them - all of them! I have so many ideas, that I’m now not sure whether they’re mine, or someone else’s. I know one thing though - I don’t want to copy anyone, I want my own style, my own voice. So, I’m now going to wade through the piles of paintings I’ve rejected but kept and see how I can adapt them to something I like. Thank you!

    Hey Louise! Thank you so much for this video. It was exactly what I needed to hear at the moment. What you said spoke directly to things I am dealing with now in regards to my art and painting. I am a self-taught mixed media (acrylic based) artist and I recently decided I want to be more of an abstract painter. I have been doing this for some years now but I still have a long way to go. Besides still trying find my particular voice, it is the "taking it to the next level" thing that I fear the most. I want to do more but the "business" side of it (promoting myself, getting out there, etc) still really intimidates me. Watching your videos is inspiring. I discovered you through Alice Sheridan and I recently started listening to Art Juice- which I love! You both are funny and very genuine and real and I love the advice you share. It is inspiring to me- a 40 something, self taught novice. Thank you (and Alice!) for all you generously share with your audience. I will keep pressing on, keep learning, keep sharing here and on my other social media, and not give in to that temptation to give up.

    It's August 2021 now and I took CVP in February. It was indeed the best thing I could have done. Now I am in the Search for Me mode and it is not easy. I sometimes don't notice that I have gone back into my head. That I don't trust my intuition. The feeling that I will have wasted the whole CVP experience and I'll never find my voice. I have been searching for mentorship to keep me on track and help me stay focused on the new way of working. So far I have not found it but I keep showing up, six to seven hours a day, 5 or 6 days a week. I keep trying to be less cerebral, more trusting, more spontaneous. I am nothing but stubborn and persistent. Just wish I could find a hand to hold right now. Thank you for your support, inspiration and honesty.

    It took me a long time to call my myself an artist and not a painter and i must say nearly everything you mention is spot on, also you have a look and a voice that people can really pay attention too, keep those video coming 😊

    Very helpful video, thank you. I am in the early learning stages after having only returned to art more recently and still have a fear of the blank canvas, but thanks to many videos I am getting better with trying new techniques and not over analysing.
