Nick…I consider you my spiritual art guru! You understand so well what life is truly about and are able to express it in such a profound and soul-inspiring way. As the well known quote goes, “we are spiritual beings having a human experience”. Every one of your podcasts has so much to offer to the art community and I am grateful. Thank you! 🙏
Thank you from New Zealand, Nicholas, for your honest, authentic self in explaining about Money. I took heaps of notes, and love what you are saying about Art and You. In another Pod you talked about Intention. I have noticed, looking back , that my intention comes from who I am - simplistic, minimal , recycling, gratitude, spirituality. I mostly work in acrylics or paper collage, abstract work. When I enter a piece in an annual charity art competition, I price my work according to what buyers might value and to give the charity a good commission. I make my work the largest requirement (100cm x 70cm) and I have found over the past 6 years, I have either won a prize or sold a piece. Your teachings and encouragement are very worthwhile and are ' Gold'. 😊 Thank you once again, Anna
I am just loving every moment, every idea here. It gets my mind going and I’m noticing even more culturally conditioned beliefs that have snuck in to my way of showing up - beliefs that I don’t need to carry around any longer. Every day I find more affirmation of my decision to join CVP! So grateful for you!! 💗🙏🏼
I really appreciated this one, Nick. I grew up in a household where money was considered evil as was having or wanting it. My childhood was peppered with parental fights over money . . . I could go on, but as a result of all this trauma and dysfunction around money, I have struggled with money my entire life.Suffice it to say that I found this podcast liberating and so helpful. I am deeply appreciative and grateful. Thank you.
I love this linking of luxury to life force. The language has always been pointing us here - money is currency - life force energy!!! i think we've had it backwards - that we need $ to fully live... you turn it around: living authentically brings the energetic flow of money to us. beautiful.
Thanks for your thoughts. I love that I can paint and learn at the same time. A large part of my art play is because I over think . Along with all that - I come downstairs into my happy place and sometimes I become more focused because of a point from you or even another source. Started trying to draw anything probably 6 years ago. I’m trying now to do art stuff everyday . Mostly I play the field in mediums. I learn something and am inspired every day. Your podcasts on utube are inspirational. 0:15
Nicholas, I live in Nice France. I can’t wait to take a workshop with you and other painter- followers. I will be in the US in couple of years but in the meantime if you consider putting a workshop in south of France I can help being local. Nice is expensive but few kms west quite possible. Summer is not the best season but fall and spring is delightful around here. I know I’m dreaming but dreams can come true. Cheers, Nora
The concept that money is energy came to me too recently (as I was writing my morning pages), but also the importance of keeping it flowing. Energy works best, and is optimized and multiplied when it flows. I think that as you open yourself up to receiving/channeling/giving/transmitting energy, in all its forms, especially love and compassion, money will come to you more easily as well. Art making is one of the most powerful and important ways to do this!
Everything I needed to hear, and contemplate, at the moment I needed to hear it. Being in Morocco for 43 min was nice too! Feeling grateful...thank you!
Enjoyed this one! It's a philosophical approach yet it has real world applications. I consider myself an emerging artist but at the early parts. Keep trying to learn...to be grateful for ALL of the opportunities and learning. Thanks!
Nick. This was extraordinary for me! And the conversation with Meryanne!!!!! GASP! Remarkable. Resonated and my whole body tingled through all of it. Thank you just doesn't seem to say enough about it. I learned so much about myself, things I never really thought about before such as her definition of a visionary. Loved it!
Really great conversation here. RE value, pricing, richness/luxury in experiences - in life. As one traveler in the cheap seats, I am ever grateful for the vast richness in nature that is free to us all. That can make my life, if low in the financial gains to date, just sparkling with wonderful luxury in my beautiful location and my rich art life. I'm ever happy and enjoying that luxury afforded all.
Love this one Nick. I know I have a money thinking issue like so many of us do 😮. I found these ideas about money very valuable. I’d really like to give myself a gift next year to attend a workshop. It’s a big milestone birthday. 😮 Is the info on the website? Thanks Anne Jordan
