Creative Space with Jennifer Logue Jennifer Logue

On this week’s episode of Creative Space, we’re diving into Chapter 12 of Julia Cameron’s seminal book on creativity, “The Artist’s Way.” The focus for this week is “Recovering a Sense of Faith.”

There is so much to cover but there are four principles we’ll talk about: trusting, mystery, the imagination at play, and escape velocity.

One of my favorite passages from this chapter:

“We speak often about ideas as brainchildren. What we do not realize is that brainchildren, like all babies, should not be dragged from the creative womb prematurely. Ideas, like stalactites and stalagmites, form in the inner cave of consciousness. They form in drips and drops, not by squared off building blocks. We must learn to wait for an idea to hatch.”

On this week’s episode of Creative Space, we’re diving into Chapter 11 of Julia Cameron’s seminal book on creativity, “The Artist’s Way.” The focus for this week is “Recovering a Sense of Autonomy.”

There is so much to cover but there are two principles we’ll talk about: acceptance, success and the zen of sports.

One of my favorite passages from this chapter:

“If you are happier writing than not writing, painting than not painting, singinging than not singing, acting than not acting, directing than not directing, for God’s sake, let yourself do it. To kill your dreams because they are irresponsible is to be irresponsible to yourself. Credibility lies with you and God—not with a vote of your friends and acquaintances. The creator made us creative. Our creativity is our gift from God. Our use of it is our gift to God.”

On this week’s episode of Creative Space, we’re diving into Chapter 10 of Julia Cameron’s seminal book on creativity, “The Artist’s Way.” The focus for this week is “Recovering a Sense of Self-Protection.”

There is so much to cover but there are two principles we’ll talk about: fame and competition.

One of my favorite quotes from this chapter: “The desire to be better than can choke off the simple desire to be. As artists we cannot afford this thinking. It leads us away from our own voices and choices and into a defensive game that centers outside of ourselves and our sphere of influence. It asks us to define our creativity in terms of someone else’s.”

On this week’s episode of Creative Space, we’re diving into Chapter 9 of Julia Cameron’s seminal book on creativity, “The Artist’s Way.” The focus for this week is “Recovering a Sense of Compassion.”

There is so much to cover but there are three principles we’ll talk about: fear, enthusiasm, and creative u-turns.

One of my favorite quotes from this chapter: “A productive artist is quite often a happy person. This can be very threatening as a self-concept to those who are used to getting their needs met by being unhappy.”

My favorite quote from this chapter: “Stop complaining about the lousy curves you get thrown and stretch, reach for what you REALLY want.”

On this week’s episode of Creative Space, we’re diving into Chapter 7 of Julia Cameron’s seminal book on creativity, “The Artist’s Way.” The focus for this week is “Recovering a Sense of Connection.”

There is so much to cover but there are four core principles we’ll talk about:  Listening, Perfectionism, Risk, and Jealousy.

My favorite passage from this chapter: “We deny that in order to do something well we must first be willing to do it badly. Instead, we opt for setting our limits, at the point where we feel assured of success. Living within these bounds, we may feel stifled, smothered, despairing, bored. But yes, we do feel safe. And safety is a very expensive illusion.”
