Sarah Grass, Artist and Founder of The Pack Art School stopped by Peps this week to talk about her new upcoming class "The Artist Rebirth Cycle" and also, how artists can foster a long healthy relationship with their art over the long haul. She shared a lot of fascinating ideas about the psychology of making art as well as some techniques for drilling down to our true creative selves...inspired by the writings of Psychologists and Philosophers past & present. ALSO! Check out Sarah's homemade LISTICLE for "How To Succeed in a Long-term Relationship with Your Work"- it's so good! Her program, The Pack, is an alternative art program that meets online, all levels welcome, to help artists: get supportive feedback and encouragement, get back to working after a break, or make a change.
