HI Haydee:

I am so psyched to have you start! Even though the challenge itself is over, you can challenge yourself today or any day. I’d love to hear which of the art tasks you most enjoy in 5 minute bursts.

Creatively Yours,
Amy

Hi Dana:

Welcome to Mindful Art Studio! Your words are such music to my ears. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you taking the time to comment here, it really makes all the effort worthwhile. I’m thrilled to hear that drawing little squares was quieting and led you to bigger drawings. How wonderful. I hope you’ve signed up for the mailing list so that you don’t miss anything I share especially with folks on my list.

Happy Creating!
Amy

I just happened upon this page a week ago, and it has really made a difference in my life since. The wealth of info is staggering. I’m like a kid in a candy store. Lol. Once I got started on the little squares, I began doing bigger drawings. I now realize that art is what was missing from my daily self-care. It is so calming and meditative. I tune out the kids and just get lost for an hour or more. Thank u for this idea. I needed it.

HI Nicole:

What an amazing story, Nicole, even without knowing the details, I can feel the power and so appreciate you taking the time to write about it. I am so happy to hear that I could provide some ideas for you as you get back into your art practice. I wonder if destruction and reconstruction/re-imagining will have any place in your art work now, or if you are on to other, different themes.
Cheers, and welcome to Mindful Art Studio!
Amy
