Lately Ive been thinking more about expressive arts...actually putting a timeline of when i want to do the certification (2012) as well as what steps I can do today to nurture that creative part in me. I was sharing with Carey & Robin how excited i was looking at the upcoming year classes....

I wonder if the courses change from year to year or if its the same. Soon they will be posting details soon so I'm sure i will find out. just so excited but let me get back to what i was saying.
right now i want to be creative but not sure how... i feel blocked. at this moment it doesn't feel as natural to pick up a pencil and draw. i want to be free in my drawing.... i don't want to draw/paint a still life or a landscape but just what my body to create. i cant remember a time that ive ever done that. i remember escaping in my painting and being so intuned to music and strokes not really paying attention to the detail of how a landscape will come out but a true abandonment no ive never had that.painting from my spirit. whats that.now saying all of this aloud i realize why my mind has been on expressive arts..my heart is singing and wants to be heard and im just not sure how. well i think ive found the solution through the Art Studio of Ny. There were about four classes that really spoke to me but now I'm narrowing it down to two classes..I'm just not sure which one yet (both sound like exactly what i need:
