Creativity doesn’t happen in isolation.

Some of the biggest breakthroughs in my artistic journey happened because I allowed myself to be inspired by other artists.

In this week’s episode of Creative by Nature, I’m sharing how seeing other artists’ work can spark new ideas, help you explore new materials, and open unexpected creative pathways.

I also share a personal story about how another artist helped me completely transform my creative process — shifting from a structured approach to one guided by intuition, energy, and trust.

This journey eventually led me to begin creating aura paintings, a process that allows art to unfold over time through energetic layers and intuitive guidance.

If you’ve ever wondered whether looking at other artists’ work will influence your creativity, this episode might help you see inspiration in a whole new way.
