“Are you an artist?” is a question that I’ve been asked by some, but responded “no” to until recently. A group of us were preparing to walk to a concert in a nearby park, and a friend of a friend turned to me and asked that infamous question and I said, “yes I am”. For years I’ve responded with an array of hesitant statements that ranged from “I like to play in clay” to “I am an artist supporter and I like design” to just plain “no”. That August afternoon, I was able to respond in an affirmative way because I've started being intentional about developing my talent to live a life that's more creative.
I’d like to use the Creative Cookie blog to explore deeper questions, such as “what does creativity feel like”, to make a space for other unsure artists to emerge. This blog also will serve as a diary of my creative journey. So, you’ll get a glimpse of my artistic process and the adventures that I encounter along the way.
From one Creative Cookie to another, WELCOME!
I’ve always known that your an artist, that is one of the first things that drew me to you. I think that biggest your asset is that you have a creative "spirit” that allows you to be artistic in many fields. I’m glad you finally realized and accepted what most people already knew…
