What is the first thing that comes to mind when you fail or fall short of your expectations? Are you hard on yourself? Do you get frustrated or have moments when you just want to give up? The fact is, most people do. It’s just part of the human experience but that doesn’t mean it’s not difficult or valid. What it is though, is something to be aware of and have a game plan for dealing with it so it doesn’t get in the way of enjoying your creative experience, or any life experience! That’s what I’m speaking about today. This is a really casual conversation filled with little stories and a few tangents, but it’s a very human look at the very human side of being a creative in this crazy complicated world. - Leave a COMMENT: https://thesagearts.com/episodes/ - CONTACT SAGE Email Sage via the contact form or send a voice mail (use the red button, bottom right) on the show website: https://thesagearts.com/contact/ And join Sage on social media: Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thesageartspodcast/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheSageArtsPodcast - GET WEEKLY PODCAST NOTICES & BONUS MATERIAL: https://sagebrayvaron.com/the-sage-arts-podcast/ - JOIN THE COMMUNITY: The Sage Arts Share Space on Facebook - SUPPORT THIS PODCAST · Buy me a coffee! · Give back with PayPal · Buy a STICKER!

Have you struggled with creating color palettes or even just deciding what colors go well together? Today’s chat is a real eye-opener, breaking through the restrictive, although not wholly useless, traditional color schemes to unveil the simple reason why some colors go together better than others and how to unerringly identify what colors work well in combination and why others don’t. Pull out a CMY color wheel, if you have one, so you can visually play along or bring this one up on your screen: https://tenthmusearts.com/product/cmywheel/ I promise, will never look at color combinations the same way again!

We talk a lot about not giving up in our societies. We talk about persistence and all the ways that you can accomplish and finish things, but how often do we talk about the importance of setting things aside when they aren't fulfilling our needs? In this episode, I’ll speak about why giving up can be a really great thing to do, when it is the right choice, and how to figure out whether persisting or setting aside particular pieces, projects, or goals is the right thing for you. Because sometimes, not only is it ok to give up, it is the best thing for you and your creative work. - Leave a COMMENT: https://thesagearts.com/episodes/ - CONTACT SAGE Email Sage via the contact form or send a voice mail (use the red button, bottom right) on the show website: https://thesagearts.com/contact/ And join Sage on social media: Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thesageartspodcast/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheSageArtsPodcast - GET WEEKLY PODCAST NOTICES & BONUS MATERIAL: https://sagebrayvaron.com/the-sage-arts-podcast/ - JOIN THE COMMUNITY: The Sage Arts Share Space on Facebook - SUPPORT THIS PODCAST · Buy me a coffee! · Give back with PayPal · Buy a STICKER!

Well, today, I'm going to demystify the concept of color and give you a very straightforward and rather fun way to understand and work with color that'll show you that, all along, it wasn't you. It was the system! By the end of this podcast, you'll know why color has been difficult to mix and how to mix with control, with pigments or visually.
