This week, it’s all about art and the
creative folks who make art happen.
“International Artists Day” is celebrated on October 25 this year. It’s the perfect time to recognize the artist
in each of us … especially those among us who would never call ourselves “an
artist.”
Being an artist encompasses so much
more than painting or drawing. Do you
sew, knit, bake, grill, dance, write, sing, compose, build …? Then, you are an artist. And in the words of one of my most favorite
art books for children, entitled “I am an Artist” by Pat Collins … “I am an
artist whenever I look closely at the world around me. And whenever you listen and search and see, you are an artist too”.
Join the
celebration today, this week. Recognize your artistry. Share it with the world!
