I’m Not A Writer


As creative as the title is it’s true, I am NOT a writer.
My blog won’t be filled will poetic wisdom or anything I would consider truly influential, but that was never my intention anyway.
My hope was to use this blog to answer questions, talk about my own life and even about past projects that were extra challenging and lessons that I have learned over my ten years of experience. Firstly, this blog is going to be HONEST. This is me, and only me.
Every now and then I’ll post a video or a few pictures and hopefully teach you a little something that can help you down the road, but for the most part it’s just going to be me telling you about my experiences and my trials and my career (which really has only just begun).
So if you’re OK with that and actually might be interested to read more over time, go ahead and subscribe. Read my thoughts. Enjoy my humor (which I can only pray comes through in my writing) and most of all, remember, I’m just a human being with my own life and my own challenges trying to make life a little more fun and a lot more creative.
Till next time. Keep Creative.
Lexi

I’m not looking for pity from anyone, I’m just telling everyone how I personally feel relatively often. There are a lot of factors I can contribute to these feels. A lot of things that have happened in the past has effected me and continues to effect me on a daily basis. trying to overcome that little voice in your head telling you repeatedly, “why do you even bother”, or ,”you’ll never been good enough”, or one of my favorites, “you are a failure”. There area times I don’t hear these voices nearly as strongly as other times, usually when I’m busy on a project and being paid well enough to feel like I’m contributing to my little family. But when the projects finish

Never Give Up On YOU

I’ve struggled as an artist in so many ways. In this post, I want to share a few of these struggles and how I felt at the time with you. I’ve seen so many amazingly talented people lose jobs and have to start a new career or search and search for their next opportunity to a point where they’ve exhausted their savings and have accumulated a decent amount of debt because they couldn’t afford to pay for rent or even that months groceries. This happens too much to too many people. Whether it’s with in the art industry or not, this is a reality for a lot of good people. I was one of those people last year. 2018 SUCKED! The year didn’t start out bad. We had had a decent Christmas and I was looking forward to the “holiday drought” being over (that’s September thru December where there is basically no one looking for freelancers… at least that I’ve noticed over the years…it’s a weird pattern…) and getting some much needed work to make up for the lack of it. We were doing fine at t
