To Kick Off ART Unraveled 2007: |
Open Up Your UmbrellaVision: Embracing the Whole of Your Creative Genius |
As you’ve explored the road of creativity, have you ever had any of the following thoughts…
“I have so many creative interests – how do I know what to focus on?”
“I’m a jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none…so I can never be a “real” artist.”
“When I thinking about making art, there are too many choices and decisions to make, so I don’t do anything.”
“I don’t have enough time for all the art I want to do…it just seems impossible to fit another thing in!”
“There are just too many things out there I want to try…it can be really overwhelming!”
Whether you’re a dabbler or a seasoned artist, these may be the types of things that go through your mind. What’s the answer? Learn to “open your umbrellavision” – that is, an overarching creative strategy that allows you to let go and explore within the reality of your individual life.
Marney Makridakis, founder of Artella, the groundbreaking online art community, will present an innovative process with fun techniques that help you accept and embrace all that you are, allowing you to approach these creative challenges in brand new ways. Attendees will receive an “umbrellavision kit” with silly, fun, yet incredibly powerful tools to help illustrate the techniques and provide reminders to let go and have more fun throughout the Art Unraveled weekend and beyond.
Afterward, meet and talk with AU Instructing Artists while enjoying their art.
