Art Unframed S2 Ep.4 The Myth of The Perfect Artist

Perfection is a scam. And yet every artist keeps chasing it — the perfect brushstroke, the perfect post, the perfect version of themselves.

It’s part story, part confession, part pep talk — about failing beautifully, learning loudly, and showing up anyway. ✨ Topics you’ll hear: The myth of “talent” and how it traps artists Why social media makes perfection worse How fear disguises itself as hard work Why imperfection might actually be your style Finding joy in the chaos of creating 🎧 Listen if you’ve ever felt like your art isn’t enough.
