Art Rebound Episode 1: Kylin O'Brien, Artist

Discussion topics:

• Realizing you’re not really an “emerging artist” anymore

• Setting up your process to work with the energy and ideas as they come on their own terms

• How so much of your experience is informed by how you frame for yourself what you’re doing and why you are doing it

• Art both requires so much of you and gives so much back.

• People are often really good at wanting things, but not prepared for the amount of energy it takes to do them.

• Finding your people and creating community over time by continuing to show up
