In this episode of The Craft, Carter and Colby explore artistic concerns that arise around the issue of style. We are often concerned that we don't have a unique style or that our style is too derivative. However, sometimes these anxieties are more exaggerated in our minds than in reality. We don't create in a vacuum, so we shouldn't expect to create art that is disconnected from a broader tradition. Carter and Colby finish the conversation by discussing some ways we can avoid falling into these sometimes paralyzing anxieties.
