"There is no such thing as being done with an artistic life. Frustrations and rewards exist
at all levels on the path. Our aim here is to find the trail, establish our footing, and begin the climb (...) Many of us wish we were more creative. Many of us sense we are more creative, but are unable to actualize them for ourselves. (...) While there is no quick fix for instant, pain-free creativity, creative recovery (or discovery) is a teachable, trackable spiritual process."
-Julia Cameron (pg.5)
To my like-minded students, this quote was inspiring to me. It feels so true and relatable on all levels, especially for creative spirits like us! Just as we discussed in the workshop, withholding the artist child from within or dismissing our wants to express ourselves can lead to a devastating end. As most of you mentioned:boredom, void of life, and "too much of the same" would consume you if creativity and art weren't a factor in your life. Keep up with your goals to fulfill your creative dreams!!
