My artist’s story:

I never thought of myself as an artist, even though when I look back, I can see all of the ways that I am a creative. During Covid lockdown, I, like so many others, picked up some “Covid hobbies.” For me, though, I wasn’t able to start a creative endeavor because I was “creatively constipated”; I had “artist’s post-partum depression” after birthing my dissertation in 2014. Thank goodness for Julia Cameron’s Artist’s Way work—I finally went through her book and did the exercises during the lockdown. I thought it would help me start writing again, which it did, but I was completely surprised when I suddenly wanted to start painting. I had never really been into painting before. Well, I had tried it and played with it, but sold all my supplies when I moved to the mountain. So here I was, suddenly feeling the urge to paint, so I followed my intuition and made a beginning. Before I knew it, I was painting for hours every day. YouTube tutorials, Let’s Make Art tutorials, Anna Mason’s online art school, community college Zoom classes, then an in-person open studio weekly class once the quarantine lifted—but most importantly, hours and hours of daily practice at home in my loft office/studio. Now I’m beginning to sell prints of what I think are my better paintings (it’s all subjective). I hope you enjoy my expression and continue to find your own creative voice.
