ABOUT THE JEALOUS CURATOR:
What began as a personal blog, meant to help me find my way back to art after a two-decade post-art-school creative block, has become so much more.
I started The Jealous Curator in 2009 because I truly was jealous. I was jealous of anyone who was not only showing and selling, but also simply making art ... because I wasn’t doing any of those things myself.
So, since everyone had a blog in 2009, I started one too. I desperately wanted to turn the jealousy I was feeling into something positive. I wrote about a new artist each day, and within a month or so, I felt the heaviness start to lift. The jealousy had turned into ’get my ass back in the studio’ inspiration ... but the business cards were already made, so the name stuck.
In 2020 I archived the original blog, and now you can find me on Instagram, Substack, through my books, talks, my ‘Art For Your Ear’ podcast, and my own artwork. See you out there! ~ Danielle |
