Today ARC presents the debut v-blog of Eric Telfort’s ‘I am Art’ series. We have entered into a collaboration with Eric to bring to the forefront, dynamic expressions of his creative process, mind mapping and general feelings on painting, in order to build and harness a critical, conversing audience. Every month, Eric will present us with ruminations on creativity- lets ponder along with him.

Each episode strives to attack a particular artistic problem through journal narration, and guest appearances by other artists. Each subsequent video is presented in a multitude of ways due to the ever evolving design process. – Eric Telfort.

Partnering with ARC’s community will allow the show to grow, and reach a wider audience. I personally hope during the journey, that ‘I am Art‘, I can find a psychological and social meeting point where artists can engage in a “me too” conversation about the experience of being an aspiring sustainable artist. I would like to be a strong voice in de-mystifying the attitudes around artists being “weird” or out of touch with the mainstream. While achieving these goals I would like to also introduce a broader more varied section of society to the artist’s world in a manner that is non-intimidating-ly inviting.
