Where Art Happens: Outside the Studio

“If you are committed to creating, it is up to you to find a way. It is up to you to make it happen. Make art where you are.” - Emily Lynn Downey

Check out Emily’s blog post this morning. I love what she says! While I am so crazy grateful for my studio upstairs, creating is mobile! Take it with you! Heather and I just traveled to Nashville for a fabulous workshop which filled me back up. I gave myself permission to paint my own pets, make gifts not work to sell, work in oils which I don’t do very often and absorb a workshop as a student which always makes me a better teacher. I love that Emily is creating at her son’s baseball games! Creating in unexpected places activates the magic in the muggle world. It inspires others. Be the creative that you want to see in the world!
