Through painting, I feel my inner child, I feel beautiful, I feel creative, I feel nostalgic, I fell like I have everything I need at the tips of my fingers...
When I paint, I tap into my inner creative stream that fills up as I experience the world, and then I connect with my inner child who is free and ready to adventure. With all of this creative energy at my fingertips, I put on an album, and without any thought or plan, I pick out a color that feels good and just start painting. Sometimes I use watercolor to put base shapes down, other times its a blank canvas, and I move from one side to another, just creating what I feel like at the time. It’s like I am able to tap into this world that is so free and uninhibited, and just play with my inner child and release my creative energy. A really big thing for me is nostalgia. I will often reminisce on childhood memories through writing about them, reading about them, looking at old pictures, talking to my family and flipping through my old storybooks. I bring myself into the mindset of my nostalgic memories and my early childhood which makes it easier for me to connect with my inner child and to feel more free.
