It has been a wild, beautiful whirlwind over the last several weeks! Ever since the wearable art show, we haven’t slowed down for a second, from Mural Fest, Book Fair, and Bridgefest, to slinging paint for palette knife painting at The Exchange.
It’s been an incredible run of events, but after all that hustle, we wanted to pause tonight and talk about something close to our hearts: The Joy of Creating Unmarketable Art.
Tonight, we’re diving into the total freedom of making things that have zero commercial potential. In a world that constantly tells artists to monetize every single hobby, package up every draft, and optimize every idea for an algorithm, making weird, hyper-niche, or completely unsellable projects is what keeps your soul alive.
If you’re reading this and feeling weighed down by your own work, here is why this matters for you: When every piece you make has to be “useful,” “sellable,” or “shareable,” your creativity turns into a job. Giving yourself permission to make useless, weird art acts as a reset button for your brain. It takes away the fear of failure, breaks you out of creative ruts, and reminds you that your worth as an artist isn’t tied to a price tag or a view count.
Not everything you touch needs to end up on a shop shelf or formatted for a feed. Sometimes you just need to make something silly, strange, or chaotic simply for the pure thrill of making it. Expect a raw, unfiltered chat tonight about ditching the pressure to sell and reclaiming the simple fun of your craft.
Plus, I’m finally wrapping up the footage from the wearable art show to share on YouTube soon, so you can relive all that glorious runway chaos with us!
