Just thought I would share this great article on a friend of mine, Kendall Yellowhorn, who is a Calgary menswear designer. He recognizes that the creative process goes beyond a single person. It just reminds me that we too often focus on the independent artist working by him or herself, when really, the entire process has more impact if you strive to involve the larger art community or even simply fellow artists. Thanks, Kendall!
