An Artist's Notes - Top 10
An Artist's Notes - Top 10
Highlights from the most popular posts on "An Artist's Notes"
Hello Monday!
Instead of trying to dig deeper into my few ideas about what to share this week, I became lost in my pursuit of little studio projects - which is honestly an exceptionally good thing for me and my art practice right now. I had been stuck and not making progress for too long.
In talking with a fellow artist, however, I was reminded of some of my favorite past “notes” and thought I could at least share a “Top 10” list of hits - especially for all of you just joining me here (THANK YOU to all the new followers). So - without further ado - here are a few highlights from nearly three years of “An Artist’s Notes”. I hope you enjoy!
An Artist’s Notes - Top 10
#1
This short note, surprisingly to me, is very popular. Maybe it speaks to a need to feel okay about making a mess in a society where order and minimalism seem to be in high regard?
#2
I think the title explains its popularity - I know I can always use a little artist pep talk!
#3
I continue to find this topic interesting and challenging. I’m sure my thoughts on AI Art will evolve just as the art itself evolves, but, hopefully, this take from a couple of months ago is still worth exploring especially if you’re new to the topic.
#4
I continue to be haunted by the story which unfolded in this podcast. If you haven’t yet listened, I hope you will consider adding it to your queue.
#5
This is one of my personal favorite poems that I’ve written. And even though I’m still learning about this art form, I find it very rewarding to play with my thoughts in this way. I hope my attempts at writing poetry encourage others to play with it too.
#6
I especially enjoy this article for the related content I pulled in with it, including video links relating to Salvador Dali which I strongly recommend viewing. They definitely provide an interesting look at the creative mind and process.
#7
I have a few Business of Art types of posts (including this one and the following post) that provide a little insight into the professional side of being an artist. I hope their popularity means they are useful to readers at least in some small way.

#9
A little glimpse into where I am along the arc of my art-making career and the importance of embracing the stage in which we inhabit.
#10
And finally - as a nice little bookend to my “top 10” journey (since this week found me playing with the project once again instead of exploring writing topics) - my most viewed Substack article (after my gift guide holiday posts) features the first art piece I made for my 2023 “Swatch Journal”.
Thank you for reading here and perusing my “Top 10” with me!
I hope you enjoyed this little journey into “An Artist’s Notes” past posts. I look forward to continuing to share my art, inspirations, and insights about all things art-related/adjacent with you! And if you have any questions or topics you want me to explore - feel free to let me know with an email or comment below.
Sincerely,
