About this listen

Join renowned artist Scott Christian Sava in a humorous, inspiring journey that guides artists of all levels to embrace failure, overcome self-doubt, and rediscover the joy of creating art.

Join Scott Christian Sava, a beloved artist and social media star, as he delivers a refreshingly honest guide to navigating the emotional and creative complexities of being an artist. Known for his down-to-earth wisdom and warm, irreverent tone, Sava encourages artists to embrace imperfection, push through self-doubt, and just start making art, no matter the obstacles. This book is filled with practical advice and answers to the burning questions every artist faces, from overcoming creative block to knowing when a piece is truly done. Sava’s message is clear: there’s no “cheating” in art, and every mistake is a stepping stone to finding your unique creative voice.

Featuring 50-75 original black-and-white drawings, the book offers readers a comforting reminder that the messy, frustrating process of making art is what makes it meaningful. Sava’s humorous and inspiring approach tackles the emotional struggles all creatives share—imposter syndrome, perfectionism, and fear of failure—while encouraging artists to get out of their own way and rediscover the joy in creating. Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner, this book serves as both a companion and a guide, helping you turn blank pages into worlds of possibility.

In this book, Sava offers listeners:

  • Guidance on overcoming imposter syndrome and creative block
  • Encouragement to embrace imperfection and experiment with different styles
  • Insight on managing the emotional ups and downs of being an artist
  • 50-75 original black-and-white drawings for inspiration
