It was such a gift to be able to teach my second Process Painting Workshop yesterday afternoon. Along with learning the different painting tools and abilities to explore in abstract painting, we primarily focused on facing our fears and self-imposed limitations, and listening to our body throughout the process. It was stretching, and sometimes uncomfortable, but you should’ve seen the joy in our breakthrough, y’all. I’m no teacher, or art therapist by any means, but I know how it feels to be stuck in my head, paralyzed by my fears, or trapped in the belief that I can’t create. I also know the freedom on the other side. And if just one person’s perspective or life can shift because of a two hour moment of bravery in front of a canvas, then I know it’s worth it.
