Look for things that inspire you. Julia Cameron, in her book, The Complete Artist's Way, outlines her regimen she to inspire herself or shatter artist's block. One thing - she walks. A 20 daily minute walk for observation of our world allows God to bring some of his precious creations into view in a way we do not expect. It gives us time to think on the things we observe, the little joys, or annoyances, as the case may be. Walking is also good for our lymph systems, which is our main line of defense against disease. Cameron is a playwright, book author, and poet. She conducts creativity workshops. Her book is excellent for all those who create anything. Tomorrow I will share another part of her daily and weekly routine and things that inspire me.

I especially enjoy teaching adults - people who don't think they can draw or do art. It's all about Discovery. It's not so much that I want to turn you into an artist per se. What I enjoy seeing as I teach you is the transfer of knowledge in your doing art and the realization that there is more inside you that is wonderful and amazing than you ever imagined. I create a safe fun environment in which all students feel free to experiment, try new things, and push their limits. Y...ou WILL learn to do very good, expressive art. It is a very personal, spiritual kind of experience of discovery. Sometimes you stumble. And I stumble. And we pick ourselves up and say, "It's only a piece of paper." Then we ask ourselves, "Is there something about what I just drew that I liked? We "frame" that. And then we ask, "What is it that I don't like about this piece of art? What would I change to make what I didn't like better on another piece of paper." And we go from there. I have yousave everything so you will be able to see the transformation that comes from practicing on a regular basis. See more
