Creative Sparks Is Back!

I’m excited to announce that I’ve recently rebooted Creative Sparks! Join us for lively and inspiring conversations about art and the creative process on Wednesday evenings from 6:30-8:30 at Coffee House 1420. Bring some new work, questions about art, fresh ideas, or just show up and participate in the group discussion. I’ll offer critique, ideas and strategies for getting ideas off the ground and into the gallery, book or other outlets.

These sessions are available to artists of all mediums. Expect a small group of 8-12 who are interested in developing their work, overcoming creative blocks and finding their way as artists. Bring your work on a flash drive (USB) or paintings, drawings, etc. We’ll review them as a group and I’ll offer suggestions for further exploration, inspiration, artists to look at and more.

Motivating Quote from Photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson

Here’s one of my favorite inspiring quotes from Henri Cartier-Bresson. It’s even better hearing him say it with his French accent. Just lovely!

Motivating quote by photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson

Sometimes we think we can create great work by making a few attempts. This quote inspires me to create lots of ideas and then choose the best, keeping in mind that sometimes I still need to keep working at it.

What inspires you to keep working?
