Relying on Intermittent Daily Practices for Creative Progress with Helen Hiebert (ep. 213)

Host Alyson Stanfield discusses the benefits and strategies of a daily creative practice with Helen Hiebert, who constructs installations, sculptures, films, artists' books, and works in paper using handmade paper as her primary medium.

This conversation acknowledges the value of a daily practice, but Helen is a strong advocate for what she calls "intermittent daily practices." If sticking to a daily routine forever feels daunting, her approach might resonate with you.

There's also a dive into Helen's realization that as a teacher, she could maintain the same class structure while creatively evolving the content to keep it fresh and exciting over time—primarily to prevent herself from getting bored. She emphasizes the importance of focusing on the act of making—without obsessing over the final outcome.
