https://Art2Life.com - Bonny Snowdon has a unique way of looking at art—she shares how to critique your art without tearing yourself apart, how to be kind to yourself, and how to find joy in the act of creating. Bonny opens up about her journey, and it's the kind of story a lot of us can relate to: life throws a few too many punches, and suddenly, you're searching for something that makes you feel alive again. For Bonny, that was drawing. She turned that love for art into her full-time gig—teaching, creating, and sharing the beauty of conscious creation with the world. We dig into how Bonny keeps a positive attitude, how she's learned to roll with imperfection, and why art has been such a powerful force for her.
