Thank You for Motivating Me

Sharing my love of the creative process with others brings me joy. Helping my Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain students learn about drawing profiles got me motivated. I am drawing my husband in profile. I've been through a lot lately and my creative juices were not flowing. Thank you, ladies, for re-igniting my flame.

That ah-ha moment! Look at the happy faces. Rubbing a fish, especially for the very first time, produces anxiety. Not to worry. I have never let anyone leave without a good print. Ten accomplished gyotaku artists!

Get a minimum of eight friends who want to do this and I'll come to your location in SouthShore, Florida. $35 covers fish and all supplies. You bring nothing but a clothespin for your nose. LOL

Email me with your preferred date and time (2 1/2 hours) and I'll get back to you: grace.mckee@live.com.
