I haven’t been posting much for my “artists” (I put that term in quotes because I’m not just referring to people who paint/draw/etc, but to everyone who is creative – all those actors, writers, designers, musicians, and trapeze artists out there), and that needs to stop.

I’m making it up to you by introducing you to Keri Smith, who describes herself as “an author, illustrator, and guerilla artist.” She is awesome on many levels, but mostly because she has created The Artist’s Survival Kit:

In it, you’ll find exercises such as:

• What To Do When You’re Stuck cards
• a Priorities Checklist
• How to Handle Rejection (Tips)
• Procrastination Justification
• and a template to Create Your Own Damn Award

Whatever type or artist you are (fingernail painter?), you should download this kit (for free!) and keep it close to your heart. It’s infused with a lot of love and passion, a great dose of perspective, and amazing humor and fun.
