Memorable Quotes "Creativity, the way I define it, is a sense of flow, a sense of vital force within us that is leading to cellular growth. We're shaping ourselves every day, actually. We're combing our hair, we are getting dressed. We are in a creative process of discovery about ourselves and who we are." "I feel like one of my issues is perfectionism. Just always going through life as a people pleasing perfectionist. And art was the one place that I can get messy and I didn't really care what other people thought about what I was making." "If we saw life as art rather than as duty, I think it takes on a different feeling. It's releasing the shackles of maybe our thoughts about something, and it's giving us some more resilient and fluid ways to look at a situation which can take the stress out."
