Are you tired of feeling like the copycats always win?

From music to fashion and everywhere in between, it seems that imitation is more than flattery - it's good business. But it's bad for the artist, right?

In this episode we explore the tension between imitating our mentors, teachers and iconic master artists, and becoming innovative and original artists in our own right. By carefully exploring each step between imitation and innovation, we can find the right balance where we can always remain authentic to our God-given vision as creatives.
