Rick Rubin

Creativity is not a rare ability. It is not difficult to access. Creativity is a fundamental aspect of being human.

The universe is alive and constantly expressing itself through creation.

Art is a reflection of the world we live in, or perhaps the world we wish to inhabit.

There is no right or wrong. There is only what works and what doesn’t, for you.

We are all translators for messages the universe is sending.

The work reveals itself as you move forward, not before.

To create is to bring something into existence that wasn’t there before.

Discipline is not the enemy of enthusiasm, but its partner.

Silence is an empty space, a container for the universe of possibilities.

The most important practice is to show up, regardless of mood or circumstance.

We don’t make art to get somewhere. We do it to be here.

Your uniqueness is your gift. No one else can offer what you can.
