Most of us think, like Virginia Woolf, that we need a room of our own and solitary time to make art. Perhaps. . .
But that's not the whole story. Often what makes us able to make art on our own is knowing that lively and often hilarious exchange of creative energy that happens while making art in a group. Frankly that's why I've been teaching these Muse Groups and mixed media workshops for years and still feel a rush of energy each time we meet.
So if you're wondering if you should try join a Muse Group this fall, and you're a beginner or a more advanced painter, collager, and/or writer, consider this. . .
students tell me this is why they come to Muse Group:
*to be playful and rediscover their enthusiasm for making art
*to enjoy the company of other art adventurers
*to discover their own unique style
*to loosen up and break old patterns
*to try new mixed media painting techniques
*to learn how to still the mind and tap creative flow
Come play with us this fall! -Susan Cornelis
