7 Things Adults Need to Get Over
Oh my absolute DARLIN's - if I got measure success by the amount of art I get to make with other people - this week was WILDLY successful.
I started an online art group for teen-ish aged folks, and it was a wildly wonderful experience. Turns out - video chat is the perfect vehicle for this kind of thing, because participants could truly show up in the way that made them most comfortable. I absolutely loved getting to do process art with these kids and teens, and I'm looking forward to each future session. In any case - beginning this group this week had me feeling some kinda way, and I was thinking about how much stuff grown-ups have to unlearn to unleash their creativity.
So here you have it --
