Arts and Wellness Cafe - You are Limitless

 


Join me for this months episode of the Arts and Wellness Café - the main word for the month is Limitless and Pause.  We have to know that there are limitless possibilities available to you each and every day and you also need to know when your body needs to take a Pause.

I also share details of an art journal - my 'phone case' journal, which was great to make and is really handy if you have a lot of paper elements to use up.


You get to see a flip through of the pages, and I have one more to complete.


In the book review we look at Drawing Lab, a great book to work on your drawing practice.  We ask the Question of the week and look at the Tip of the Week and so much more.

Often when we are trying to put new systems in place there can be so many distracting elements that by the time we have turned around the whole day is gone.

It is essential that we discover who we are creatively, what we like, what makes us tick so that we can make the most of the opportunities that come along - if you want to establish your practice, or find ways in which the art activities can help you work through different areas of your life.
