      Thank you! Yes, I learned calligraphy in high school. I don’t remember the exact strokes for each letter anymore, but I do play around with drawing my own letters a lot. I started doing it when I was working at the library and creating window art. Sometime we should add an art date to our lunch dates.

    You sound a lot like me Kaci! I applied for two arts grants over the years and failed to acquire places on BFAs or MFAs simply because I didn't have a certain style or theme in my artwork 🤔 tbh art colleges here in Ireland are geared towards commercial art/enterprises and are kind of restrictive so I am kind of glad I didn't go to art college. So I am more likely (and so are you) freer than most art students in that we can experiment with different media and are able to enjoy the process

    • @KaciCreates
      @KaciCreates Рік тому

      You hit the nail on the head. I’m thankful I didn’t go to art school, I would have spent all my time pleasing my professors rather than doing my own art. That’s the curse of the creative - if you want to make money, often you have to make what sells rather than make what’s in your soul. Society values conformity too much, at the expense of true innovation and expression.

      @sandrafisherhayes3219 Рік тому

      @@KaciCreates exactly! We are sacrificing a lot if we conform to what society expects. I have attended portfolio courses and life drawing classes but they were a lot freer in structure with little or no pressure to conform and I loved that aspect of both.
