Wow, Blake! This is a beautiful story and very well-written. You really captured the nuances and internal and external challenges of being an artist today. We have to learn to live with so many tensions and things that pull at us outside and inside, keeping us from truly expressing our art in the most authentic and fulfilling way. I can't wait to hear more about all of this. And, maybe one day visit David's gallery too.

Thanks Jonathan! Yeah you have to visit the gallery if you’re near Nashville. It is a rather spiritual experience!

This is so beautiful and such a great reminder of what it’s really about. Knowing myself I will lose sight of this from time to time (or more often than that if I’m being honest). Archiving this post to read again when I need it♥️ thank you for sharing Blake!
