"... hungry and ready"


"... anything worth doing is worth doing 
poorly. While this is offensive to perfectionists, it is a powerful truth. We start where we are and grow from there."

"You don't have to wait until you're brilliant, you just have to be hungry and ready."
Charity Bowman-Webb




     It is an age-old saying- 'Artists see the world differently'... Perhaps it is truer to say-
'Artists see the world'. 

     Every artist had a beginning. And, every successful artist will say, "The path to success is paved with mistakes." Success requires


space and time...

space for mistakes and time spent working toward a goal.


     This week we made paint, looked at a few contemporary photographers, discussed 18th Century British painting and made assemblages from found objects... with plenty of space and time to spare.

"Creativity is part of human nature,
it can only be untaught."
Ai Weiwei


And then, there are those who truly see differently...
