Course Description:
Do you struggle with finding one reason why you should sit down and create art? Do you feel guilty when you finally set aside time to make something? Society has taught us that art is irresponsible, unproductive, and even childish. As adults, we believe we can’t afford the time, money, or effort it takes to be creative. But we can.
With this course, I hope to ignite that artistic spark and help you get unstuck from your creative rut. We’ll discuss why it’s important to make time for your creative passions. Then, we’ll look at six common obstacles artists face and how to overcome them. Finally, I’ll walk you through exercises to get those creative juices flowing.
Allow yourself to be creative. You deserve it!

Such a fun course that tackles the big WHY behind why we really do art - and how important it is to be creative. Being creative and making art is never a waste of time! Thanks for the excellent pep-talk, Shelby! And for slaying all of my reasons not to do art. Good reminder to do things that keep me "alive above the shoulders", as a teacher of mine used to say!

I appreciated the reminder that art does not have to be shared with anyone and it can be beneficial to health. The exercise to find additional time in the week by identifying areas of time waste was especially helpful.
I've used every excuse described to keep from trying to do art! I feel I now have permission to make awful art full of mistakes and just move on to the next effort. I don't have to be this perfectionist that I am. I especially liked the ideas for finding what I like in others' art as an inspiration!
