How Showing Up With Joy Opens Creative Doors with Australian Artist Nic Everist

Send us Fan Mail *Daring Creatively: Unfiltered* is an Australian art podcast where Sydney-based contemporary artist Korynn Morrison picks up the phone, drops a surprise topic into the conversation, and hits record. In this episode Korynn calls Victoria-based landscape artist Nic Everist — and this one is a little special because they are meeting for the very first time on this call. Nic is the creator of the 100 Tree Project, founder of Tree Club, and one of those rare humans who just radiates genuine joy and creative abundance wherever she goes. The surprise topic: *why giving generously and showing up with genuine joy opens creative doors.* Nic's story is one of the most honest and inspiring Korynn has heard. From quitting physiotherapy to follow a creative pull she couldn't ignore, to painting fluid portraits in her backyard, to travelling South America and painting 100 trees in 100 days during Wednesday night Instagram lives while her babies slept upstairs — every single step of her journey has been led by curiosity, grit and an unwavering belief that she would be painting forever. In this warm unplanned conversation two artists meeting for the first time talk about why giving generously is actually a creative superpower, the 100 Tree Project and how it sold out before the exhibition even opened, how Tree Club is helping plant 5000 trees on her family farm, painting through postpartum by going live on Instagram every Wednesday night, why belief and common sense are the only two things a creative business needs, the fear of failure and how to build the muscle to move through it, and why your art will always lead you exactly where you need to be if you let it. If you love art podcasts, conversations about the real creative life, or you are an artist who needs a reminder that showing up with joy is enough — this one will fill your cup right up. *New episodes drop whenever the call happens.* **Nic Everist Relevant Links:** Nic Everist on Instagram HERE Check Out Her Website HERE Tree Club: Painted Stories, Planted Trees.
