Art as Therapy

With Spring soon to give way to Summer, hot and humid summer, I completed this season’s gardening in ample time to relax and enjoy my back yard garden.

Sadly, some unexpected issues have caused me to undo most of my Spring gardening.

While waiting for a landscape crew to help move and replant some of the bigger items, I turned to one of my favorite artists who posted a video lesson that turned out to be amazingly therapeutic.

The session and resulting work turned around my sour disposition.

There is so much to be said for being creative. Creativity leads to hope and joy. How satisfying is that?

After a diverse career in Corporate America, I am freeing myself of a ton of ego traps; chief among them is "perfectionism." Watercolor, when left to its own devices and imperfections seems to create something more beautiful than intended. I am still a student and love the learning journey. Sharing that with friends and family in the form of greeting cards, has been a surprise filled with joy.
