She shared her inspiring journey of crafting brilliance in the world of bespoke jewellery. From starting her business at her kitchen table to transforming the jewellery industry, Harriet's story is a testament to the power of creativity and vision. She has made bespoke design accessible to all while championing ethical practices. Here are some highlights from our conversation: - Harriet describes her business and the many roles she plays. - Creativity as Harriet sees it – thinking in three dimensions. - How pottery lessons help surgeons cut in straight lines. - The importance of considering who you are creating for. - Harriet’s book. What it’s about and why she wrote it. - Dyslexia and everything else which lead to the 'kitchen table' moment. - The internet and Harriet’s jewellery website, a first in 1996! - The moments which led to the ‘switch.’ - Non-Executive directorships and giving back. - Harriet explains the process of creating bespoke jewellery. And here are four creative nuggets from Harriet: 1. "When I'm thinking at my most creative, I'm thinking like layers of an onion.” 2. "You can combine things that are preexisting but combined in a completely new way. And that's definitely creative, too.” 3. The right team makes the difference. “We can do this together because we can be better than the sum of our parts.” 4. “It's really important to let people stand on your shoulders and let people grow.” For loads of insights into running a creative business and what happens when you switch on your creative passion, follow the link to the **Creative Switch Podcast** https://lnkd.in/e9zGd_5s #creativeinspiration #bespokejewellery #creativeswitch

Want to learn more about the artist Gary Lee Price? Gary was commissioned to design the 305-foot Statue of Responsibility in 1996 by Stephen R. Covey, aiming to have it stand on the opposite side of the country from the Statue of Liberty. He has waived his commission for the SoR. Normally, an artist would get about a 10% commission. Gary and his wife have decided to NOT take this money and instead let it be used towards the monument and the program.

However, the journey of John Adams, an artist from West Cork, underscores the pivotal role of effort and authenticity in cultivating an artistic career. Adams' approach to organizing art exhibitions is a testament to the meticulous planning and personal touch required to engage an affluent audience. His strategy of hand-delivering professionally crafted invitations to the local elite is not merely a promotional tactic; it is a demonstration of respect for the art and the potential patron. Adams' narrative also reveals a disdain for the commodification of art, where the artist is reduced to a mere vendor, a sentiment echoed by many in the creative community. His venture into renting art to businesses is an innovative model that maintains the integrity of the artwork while providing a revenue stream. Yet, this business acumen did not align with his identity as an artist, leading to a dispassionate view of commercial activities. The dichotomy between art and commerce is further exemplified in Adams' critique of art galleries that fail to engage with the corporate world, suggesting a lack of effort in expanding their clientele. This critique extends to the realm of art education, where the demands of teaching can sap the creative energies of artist-educators, leaving little room for their own artistic pursuits. Adams' personal experiences, such as his intensive five-day painting spree, highlight the immersive nature of artistic creation. This anecdote serves as a metaphor for the all-consuming passion required to produce art that resonates with authenticity. His subsequent lifestyle change, prompted by a cancer diagnosis, reinforces the notion that life's fragility can inspire a deeper appreciation for one's craft and well-being. In conclusion, John Adams' story is a compelling narrative that illustrates the importance of effort, authenticity, and personal well-being in the pursuit of artistic success. It serves as a reminder that while talent is intrinsic, the recognition and appreciation of art often require a proactive and genuine approach. His message is powerful: create art with passion and meaning! 🏷️ #ArteetudePodcast #Episode204 #JohnAdams #WestCorkArt #ArtAndBusiness #ArtExhibitions #CorporateArt #GalleryCritique #ArtisticInnovation #CreativeProcess #ArtisticJourney #PaintingMarathon #SoberArtist #ArtWithMeaning #SupportArtists #ArtCommunity #ArtLovers #IrishArt #CorkCity #VodkaInspiration #SoberLife #CancerSurvivor #ArtTeaching #DetlefSchlich #CulturalDialogue #ArtisticExpression #VisualStorytelling #ContemporaryArtists #ArtistSpotlight #CreativeInspiration #ArtisticPassion

“The more we learn, the more we realize we don't know. We can only judge the world from our own viewpoint and our own experience.” Radim Malinic is a successful author of a number of books and I’ve long been an admirer of his work. He’s also a lovely human who’s generous with his time and his drive to inspire others. It’s been a pleasure to have known him since our first books were jostling alongside each other. And now to have been a guest on his podcast. Creativity for Sale Podcast - Episode S1 E11 🤔 How often do you pause and ponder about the words you read? In this thought-provoking episode, graphic designer and author Sarah Hyndman invites us to explore the psychology of type through her experimental and multisensory approach. 💥 With a decade of groundbreaking research, Sarah challenges the notion that typography is a niche interest, making it fun and accessible for everyone. 👃🏻 🌺 From matching scents to typefaces 💰 to discovering how expensive branding can influence the perceived taste of 🍫 chocolate, Sarah‘s interactive events and installations reveal the invisible yet profound impact words have on our 💭 thoughts, 💛 feelings, and 🚀 actions. Her journey is a testament to the power of curiosity, creativity, and a willingness to interrogate mistakes – the secret sauce that fuels growth and innovation. Key Takeaways: • Embrace naivety and enthusiasm; they are powerful catalysts for exploration and learning. • Interrogate mistakes; they offer unexpected insights and opportunities to challenge assumptions. • Make the invisible visible by fostering awareness of the subliminal processes that shape our experiences. • Relinquish the need to be "right" and listen to diverse perspectives; they can open your mind. • Persistence and a genuine love for your craft are essential for sustained creativity and growth. Radim I really enjoyed recording this episode with you. Thank you for inviting me onto your show. But next time I think we should do it in a pub with a drink 😊

Every artwork tells a story, but its true tale begins when it finds its destined owner. 🎨✨ 'Blessed in the City,' a cityscape triptych, found its home in a moment of profound serendipity and divine connection. A renowned gospel singer and art collector from Detroit was drawn to it, tears filling her eyes as she saw her destiny reflected in the painting. This moment, where art meets its owner, is what every artist dreams of. It's a beautiful testament to the transformative power of collecting art. When someone connects with our art, truly taking it all in, it becomes a catalyst, an answer, a confirmation, a solace, or a healing force. This moment marks the artwork’s completion. The journey of an artwork is a journey of purpose. It might sit in a corner, overlooked for months, or be passed around from wall to wall. It may even embark on an extensive journey and get painted over or revised. But eventually, it finds its home and fulfills the purpose for which it was created.💫 Have you ever experienced a profound connection with a piece of art? How has collecting art touched your life or transformed your space?
