My Adult Art Class has been so eye opening for me as artist and teacher. Each week my students challenge themselves and then they accomplish their goals. I have been encouraging them to be fearless and in return they deliver.
I have requested they keep journals to chart their progress. That alone is a task. It’s hard to document outside of class. I have asked them to write down thoughts and pull clippings that inspire them day to day. I said even the not wanting to do it or being mad at yourself is apart of “being an artist.” Just having the journal in your life is exciting. It is calling to you to work at something else besides your everyday and forcing them to think outside the box. They also work very hard in class. Take a look!
