Artist’s block be gone!

For the past 6+ months, I’ve had a major case of “artist’s block”. This is what inspired my journey through The Artist’s Way last October (more on this here, here and here), where I committed to extensive self-exploration for 12+ weeks, including daily morning pages (151 consecutive days, so far) and weekly artists dates. And … Keep reading…
