When your kids need a little inspiration this summer to get out their art supplies and start creating...I'd love to assist them in going for it! I'm starting to upload a TON of kid friendly art tutorials to You Tube!!!!!
Hear me on this friends:
It is SO INCREDIBLY GOOD for them to continue to build their capacity to visualize, organize, and create their ideas!!!
I was told my artistic endeavors were a hobby and continually challenged with the idea that I was investing in the wind. An aimless pursuit. "What's wrong with you? What are you doing with your life?" or even after acknowledging something was there "It's such a shame you are wasting your talent." These were statements that actually encouraged growth. I learned that we collectively had a misunderstanding in generations past of how relevant and important this part of our wiring truly is!
Honestly, I couldn't give anyone a clear answer when challenged, because where you will go is an art piece unfolding in and of itself! What I did know was that the creative space, is where the fire burned the brightest. It was the language of my heart and the way I understood the world around me, and I couldn't let it go or put it away. When it seemed slow growing and fruitless, I stayed in that pocket because I simply loved being there despite it not making a way for accolades in a world that prefers a predictable path to success.
Studio Family: We wouldn't have had the honor of hosting all of you here in the studio if we believed those lies!
So for your littles that you love so much, tell them:
It's so MUCH MORE than "art". It is the ability to take ideas from the realm of imagination to tangible expressions in real life. It's a journey to becoming problem solvers, dream creators, CEO's, entrepreneurs, and excellent communicators! Draw, color, imagine, paint, and enjoy the creative journey emerging artists! I'll cheer you on every step of the way!
