Menace to Society: Artists & Creatives

In the midst of this global pandemic, I've been thinking a lot about a subject Liz Gilbert shines a light on in her book Big Magic. Such an influential book in my personal creative journey— so much so the name of this podcast was influenced by it. She speaks about the need to create and when we don't, we destroy. So I thought, what a time to explore the creative process and how this upheaval of our daily routines in affecting our creative output. Is it a hinderance or a catalyst? Bruce McCamish, a Knoxville Photographer and creative leader in our community, takes some time to chat with me about his process and his perspective on the current times. He leads a Facebook group for Knoxville Photographers and also initiated a Delivery Assistance group for food delivery in the Knoxville and Sevierville areas. You can find him at BruceMcCamishPhotography.com and Bruce McCamish on both Facebook and Instagram.
