Your Feelings Belong at the Art Table
|
Hello my friend, Your feelings are not in the way of your art. Most of us were never taught what to do with our emotions, so when we feel tired, anxious, sad, or overwhelmed, we avoid the art table instead of going to it. But your art is a safe place for all of it. Here’s the simple practice for today: Pause. Name it in one word. Give it five minutes on a page. No masterpiece. Just noticing. You are allowed to feel and create at the same time. Next time we’ll talk about gentle, doable creative goals that stretch you without breaking you. Make art. Be happy. |

In the video, I share how the pacing works, what happens if you miss time, and how support shows up You don’t need...
