The Dreamer’s Way

The Practice

I once struggled with artist’s block. It happened right after I graduated from college - almost synchronistically, as it were. My mom, a fellow artist and life long supporter of me making art, was grappling with the nasty little gremlin of artist’s block herself. She had found this book and was pretty sure I needed to read it. It was called the Artist’s Way, by Julia Cameron. I did need to read it.

It was such a refreshing perspective on making art, how to stay inspired, and how to keep showing up. In essence, how to cultivate the making of art into a daily practice. The ritual of art making.
