Exploring art (5 Fridays)

Would you like to try making art and releasing your inner creative person?

Explore memories, materials, methods and observation, feelings and simply making marks.

MAKE IT STAND OUT

Whatever you create is a gift to you and from you to others.

It doesn’t have to begin with an idea. Prompts can come from anywhere - the walls are dripping with ideas. The best work is completely unplanned and can begin with a suggestive squiggle.
