Scott Christian Sava didn’t plan to write a book or become a YouTube mentor to millions. He just wanted to draw Spider-Man. But as his creative journey unfolded—from comic books and video games to filmmaking and community-building—Scott discovered something bigger than himself: the call to teach, to connect, and to remind others that art is a deeply human experience. In this heartfelt episode of A Fresh Story, Scott shares the long road to becoming the artist—and person—he was always meant to be.

At the center of our conversation is Scott’s new book, Becoming an Artist: How to Make Art Like a Human by Embracing Failure, Discovering Your Creative Voice, & Finding Joy in the Process. It’s part memoir, part creative manifesto, and part love letter to anyone who's ever made something just because it felt good. We talk about the myth of “cheating” in art, the loneliness of creative life, and how perfectionism can block joy. Scott reminds us that making art is not about being the best—it’s about being real.

Whether you're a lifelong artist or someone who's been too scared to pick up a pencil, this episode is for you. Scott’s honesty, humility, and humor breathe life into every lesson, and his story is a reminder that creativity isn't just a skill—it's a legacy. If you’ve ever felt like giving up, Becoming an Artist just might be your permission slip to begin again.
