How do I know this is for me?
If you are feeling unfulfilled with your life or career, this is for you.
If you are not excited by your free time (when was the last time you felt truly excited anyways?), this is for you.
If you know deep down there has to be something more for you, this is for you.
If you don't consider yourself an "artist" but perhaps you are an "aspiring" artist or have been interested in that pottery class for months or years, this is for you.
If you are a professional artist and want to deepen your connection to yourself and your creativity, this is for you.
About the upcoming Summer 2023 Issue
Each quarterly issue is loosely themed on the season of the year. While the winter issue was about connecting to your deepest subconscious desires and start to put them into action... the summer issue will include themes of:
Balancing work and play, travel, vacation
Going out into the world and soaking it all in
Taking action on the seeds you planted in the Spring
Spending time offline and in nature, getting sunshine, feeling the warmth
There are also a handful of fun mini-creative prompts sprinkled throughout the issue.
In addition to the exercises and writing, there are features art works, photography, writings, and more.
