Good morning Jamie. Loved what you had to say here. Particularly about digging down below old hurts and unearthing what is beneath. I don’t have any specific memories of “art injury” but I did grow up in a home where I felt like I had to hide anything that was emotionally important to me. I don’t know how to explain it. But I feel like I have an affinity for art. I have memories of reading an art history book in college for fun(I was an accounting major) but I have always been a very practical academic type. My sister was the artist. I have over the years collected many art supplies and related books…but no actual movement. To complicate things, I am a wordy. I collect books about writing…I have realized recently that I am not a visual person, I am a feeler. I don’t learn the lyrics to songs, but I like the way songs feel. I love that words can evoke emotion. So I guess I need to figure out how “feel” works with art for me? Anyway, thanks for the thinking points.
