Today I found myself comparing my work to other artists and feeling emotionally distraught because I felt as though my artistry was not as strong as theirs. This inevitably raised the question "why do I create?" which I found that I could not answer right away. But after thinking I found that I create for liberation from these darker moments by conjuring up stories that are open for interpretation. My style of photography is changing as I desperately seek visual integrity but one thing I have to continue to remind myself is that as artists we cannot look at another persons body of work and somehow find a way to see their strengths as our insecurities, be inspired, motivated, and left with a desire to create and elevate your craft don't stop because you feel like you are not good enough to keep on producing content that ignites emotion.
