RELEASE!
Healthy Ways to Release your stress through art.
Release yourself to you purpose
Release your own creativity
Release what brings you joy
What is something you wanna release to the world?
What creative venture are you hesitant to start?
Art is + Empowerment is about addressing this. We are full of creative opportunities we just barely scratch at them. During this time is a time to find a positive way to release. Art is an opportunity to balance energies, let shit go, and grow
What comes next Is exposure for the lit and gifted
Talent exposed to talent evolving ,creating, inspiring
New ideas, new creations, necessary connections
Pouring healing rivers, show sight of life different than ever witnessed, motivating to take action against procrastination, leaning into creation itself.
Manifesting only what you can from inside
I am a guide in this
To energize the spirit of the artist
As it is always against itself in criticism
I SHALL NOT!
As CAN'T is removed from vocabulary
I shall let my working and experiences swell in the uncharted arts - ART.is Mantra
