My mixed media collage, titled Artday, celebrating my retreat
As I transition from decades of technical and business writing, I am learning to indulge in my long-repressed creative instincts. To assist me, I recently dedicated a day as an Artist’s Retreat. To help me, I used the booklet titled “Welcome to Your Artist Retreat Day” by Linda Dessau at http://www.genuinecoaching.com/ It was a splendid day of absorbing and creating art, journaling, and being inspired. By the end of the day, I knew what my priority would be over the next few weeks, how to incorporate art with my writing, and what I can do daily to keep my momentum flowing. I almost had an “art accident” where I just about glued a mixed media collage to my kitchen counter, but I was able to salvage it, plus create three other collages!
