For Creatives: A Pixar Animator’s Letter

Pixar animator Austin Madison’s hand written letter to aspiring artists: Letters of Note: PERSIST

“I, like many of you artists out there, constantly shift between two states. The first (and far more preferable of the two) is white-hot, “in the zone” seat-of-the-pants, firing on all cylinders creative mode. This is when you lay your pen down and the ideas pour out like wine from a royal chalice! This happens about 3% of the time.”

I am sure there are many of us who can relate.
