Today we’d like to introduce you to Liv Baron.
Hi Liv, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
Since I was a child I’ve always been a creator of sorts. From using a variety of art media and materials to now making my own home decor etc. I’ve done just about every art medium there is & continuously challenge myself in this field by finding new creations to try. Doing anything creative really brings me into a meditative flow state, a safe space where I can breathe, relax & have a creative outlet without judgment. I love having a unique & creative mind unlike anyone else’s where I see things in a way that others don’t. Having the opportunity and ability to share my art & creations with the world is a dream.
From one creative genius to another- I hope to inspire those around me.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
It hasn’t always been easy finding a new creative outlet to try or continuing to create with the same art mediums & methods.
My biggest challenge that I face occasionally is having the motivation to finish projects, losing interest randomly in certain art genera’s, paying attention to when I’m being a perfectionist & not having the creative spirit at times. My ADHD plays a huge role in this, but I move forward past the struggles & find ways to get back into my rhythm again !
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I used to sell my crafty items online including jewelry. I lost interest in my craft until I stopped selling my items. That’s when I found my niche ! Now I make a variety of homemade pieces & items for myself & as gifts for my loved ones. I am currently very passionate in decorating & making decor for my space & others. I love combining different materials to make a piece of art. Painting & DIY projects are what my current obsessions are. I like to think that I have a very different creative perspective and mindset than other creators out there. I continue to have a drive to learn & try different types of art varieties & genera’s & build new skills to create for myself & others! I don’t like to stick to one particular style or genera of art & that there is what sets me apart. It is something that I am proud of.
If you had to, what characteristic of yours would you give the most credit to?
Having an open mind to different perceptions & perspectives on your art pieces is huge for getting better with your work. Take in the criticism even if it doesn’t please you, it’ll make you a better artist. I had to learn that the hard way. But with that struggle I found that when I listened to others opinions I found my own way of looking through others opened lenses without taking my own view & creativity out of it. That really helped me with my understanding & vision of what I want to make & achieve as an artist. As I took in other peoples views & looked at other artists work & found my own perspective in theirs. I made a new approach & my own different style of art with it. I love & continue to learn new approaches to different artists respective & styles !
