A WORD FROM JESSEL MILLER:
My students continue to amaze me with their ability to jump into new concepts on a weekly basis and create beauty and brilliance. I recently received this amazing quote from my dear friend Joy and it truly reflects my teaching style and direction:
Creating anything is a journey. Some parts are easy, some parts are uphill, and some parts get rocky. But unlike a real life journey, there is no map. Literally no-one has been where you are trying to go. You are heading into the unknown, like one of those old-timey explorers, and you will draw the map as you go. That's why I think my love of the unknown has turned out to be a blessing—and why I believe it's something every artist needs to embrace. Because the truth is, if you want to create something truly new, you have to step into the dark without a map. There’s no blueprint, no set of instructions, no guarantee of success. And yet, this is exactly where the magic happens—not in certainty, but in exploration.
The artists who thrive aren’t the ones who wait for clarity before they begin. They’re the ones who start anyway, trusting that the answers will come through the work itself. So instead of fearing the unknown, make it your ally. Let it excite you instead of paralyze you. Instead of asking, “What if I fail?” try asking, “What might I discover?” Because the unknown isn’t something to avoid--it’s the very thing that makes art possible.
