David Bourne and Scott Perry on Artistry

Insight and inspiration for flying higher in the difference only you can make from guests who have appeared on Creative on Purpose Live.

This week's wisdom comes from a conversation between myself and David Bourne, founder of the Stay Creative Project. Tune into the entire conversation here.

[DAVID] It's a delicate balance because you know you're constantly tweaking your art to help people yet you've got to stay true to what it really is. So ultimately, it's got to work for you the artists.

And you know it's kind of a razor's edge. It's a fine edge to walk but it's pretty exciting to walk on a razor's edge.

[SCOTT] Absolutely. I think sometimes - of artistry as being the posture of a professional creative.

I mean, yes, that's not necessarily a professional in the sense that it's your occupation or that it's your source of income but that you are taking your craft seriously and you are doing it with intent. And you were doing it with and for other people who will benefit—whose lives will be enhanced by colliding with whatever you whatever craft or whatever art you are practicing.

David and I just shared a valuable perspective about what artistry is and why it matters. How can you develop artistry in your endeavor today?
