Want to feel more inspired & alive?

Get creative! I believe that when you are in touch with your creative self, you not only make better decisions, you enjoy life with more confidence and can uplift those around you too.

I say, start with drawing.

I believe not only that everyone can draw, but that they are meant to be drawing. Drawing is the cradle for all the visual arts, helps us to understand the world and untangle emotion. Drawing communicates ideas that are too complex for words. Most importantly of all though, it’s fun! All you need do is risk making a few mistakes as you learn.
