Thank you for sharing. I am an artist who has only just started blogging so found this so interesting. I certainly agree that the more I use the right side of my brain, the creative side, the harder I find doing the drab financial, spreadsheet stuff – so pleased I’m not the only one.
Thank you Laura – I find what you do so inspiring, and thank you Leah, I’m going to check out your site for sure!!

I just read Leah’s special report on ‘How Blogging helped boost your art career’~ awesome!
We are now in the most brilliant time in history where creative spiritual people can create a career based on their unique gifts.
Embracing technology is one of the ways to make this possible.

Fantastic! I’ve been following Leah on Twitter for some time now. I appreciate both her art and her artistic connection with the blogosphere. It is SOOOO wonderful to hear this background: her inspirations, connection with spirituality and more.
Ironically, I had not connected with her blog until now. I’ve just started exploring it and can’t wait to read more about being creative every day the Leah way!
I’m inspired to re-visit my own blogging connection. The micro-blog (Twitter) is working. Now, I really see how important it is to have the full-blown blog behind it.
Blessings to you both: Leah and Laura
Love and light,

I just joined Creative Everyday this year and always look forward to learn how to boost my art career in some ways from Leah and many other successful artists in the blogosphere.
Sometimes, it does feel like a daunting task- you know, trying to find your own niche as an artist..and stop comparing yourself with others.
Although I only submitted my entry once in a blue moon, i enjoy the creative spirit brought by the community. It’s just very important to love what you’re doing and be consistent at it.
Thanks to Laura & Leah.. this interview is very inspirational.

I am high school student,hoping to get into art at the post secondary level. My first interview is on Tuesday!
It is extremely inspiring to see someone who is making a good living at being an artist. When I tell people that I want to study art at university I get comments like ” why would you do that, you’ll never get a job,” and “I thought you were smarter then that.” Its very sad that so many people think this way, but its fantastic that people like Leah and Laura are promoting the arts and artists.
I sincerely hope that we can change the “starving artist” misconception.
Love,
Ailish

Laura I love how the left brainers are finding the path to their right brains and the right brainers are finding the path to their left brains!~
It is possible to ‘visit’ one’s lesser dominant brain and find great value that can be made into an enjoyable experience. Thanks for introducing me to Leah.

When I read and watch these types of things, I am always left with the feeling that we have lost this type of creative leadership from much of our culture, and badly need it. It benefits all of us. Thanks so much for making me aware of another source.

Wow, Thanks for sharing the amazing Leah with us! I’ve often thought about starting a blog of my creative works – but since I’m not a “professional”, I keep putting it off…this got me motivated again!

LOVE it — and thanks for those additional questions to make the whole experience more meaningful — what a thoughtful and **creative** idea!
