Conquer Artist Block: Art Tutorial

David Choe delves into the complex and often tumultuous journey of an artist confronting writer's and artist's block. Through a candid and introspective monologue, the creator reveals their struggles with self-expression, fear of disappointment, and the challenges of navigating personal and familial expectations. The video explores themes of vulnerability, the creative process, and the necessity of embracing one's truth, even when it is uncomfortable or unsightly.
True artistic growth often requires confronting and embracing one's deepest fears and insecurities. It is a poignant reminder that creativity is not just about technique but also about personal courage and authenticity.
David Choe is an American artist, musician, and former podcast host from Los Angeles. He has produced his own talk show called The Choe Show on FX Networks, and has appeared on various other shows such a The Joe Rogan Experience, the Rich Roll podcast, and Tiger Belly.

    "If you want to be a great artist you're gonna have to disappoint your parents". Stings! I remember my grandmother crying when I told her I dropped out of university to persue my art.

    Everything in my being tells me to disappoint everyone, drop out of college, move to LA, just me, my wife and our son, and try to pursue music like the ambitious 19 year old wanting to be remembered that I once was. I’m not doing bad, in fact I have a lot of happy moments in my life, but I’d be lying if I said a part of me always feels empty when I don’t get to play music as much as I wish I could. This might not be the exact message of your video, but this was the thought that came instantly into my head after watching.

    Look around where you are now. If you really try, it's likely you could find some other people who feel how you do and perform music together. Start there. Find a way to play, even if it's out of someone's garage or a tiny bar. Then, you'll figure it out from there once you're creating

    Hello you person that I have never met. Your comment made me think of something. I think there are more than one way to pursue your dream. I heard someone say that when you mix your dream and money, suddenly everything can potentially go bad. So instead of just playing / painting / whatever, you have to post and make videos and almost get a degree in marketing and business or pay someone else to, and what time is left to just play? Worst of all, you have to play things that are MARKETABLE. So you tend to compromise on your artform because you literally have to put food on the table. I really took this to heart when I heard it. Now I work 7 hours a day at a job that I like 70% of the time, I DO NOT worry about money, go home to my kids (who are teens now), and then I paint whatever. I. want. And it is really really nice. So unless you want fame too, having artistic freedom and just doing what you want may be the right thing for you too. For me just believing I have the right to spend some time doing what I want is the hurdle. And then actually doing it. Those 7 hours that I work are not the hurdle. Okay hope this makes sense.

    Good God, what a great channel. The gems of knowledge you share have been so useful. It's like the dam of creativity has opened up and torrents of ideas and motivation are pouring into my mind. The dam was blocked by fear. I'd start things that would be good but I was afraid I'd fuck something up so I have a living room full of half done peices, I'd overthink every move and get stuck. The ole egoic, thinking, analyzing left brain hemisphere mind was fucking my shit up, but now its like my feeling, creative, intuitive, nurturing right hemisphere has become much more activated or something. It goes way beyond just my artwork. It seems to be serving my highest ambition in this lifetime which is the pursuit of christ consciousness or enlightenment. Thankyou, David Choe from the bottom of my heart.
