I'm quitting...

Just to clarify, I am not quitting art, I am quitting social media, specifically Facebook and Instagram…which are the two I have focused my efforts on.

After some reflection, I realized that social media just burnt me out completely. So, I stopped posting, or I would post now and then thinking things would be different, but they weren't. So, I've decided to take a break from social media for a while. Instead, I'll be posting updates on my blog and sending emails to my special mailing list members. If you'd like to stay in the loop about my newest art, classes, and my thoughts on creativity, mindset, and life in general, you should join my email newsletter. I'd be thrilled to have you as a part of my email community!

Going forward, I plan to let the process of sharing my art evolve organically, just like my art has been evolving since moving to Arizona. I've realized that I need to find a way to share my work that doesn't interrupt my creative flow or take up too much of my time. Hopefully, if I can capture snippets in a more integrative way, sharing my work will become a natural extension of my creative process.

So, I came up with a few ideas. For starters, I'm going to start filming short studio vlogs where I talk about what I'm currently working on. I've already filmed one, and I'll be posting it in the next day or so. I'll be sure to let you know as soon as it's up!

Also, I want to write more, like I used to on my blog before social media was a "thing." I want to share what's on my heart in a way that's more personal and intimate than a social media post could ever be - and in a space that's entirely mine.

So, that's why I've been a little quiet online lately. The other reason is just life, health, and family stuff, which always come first. But creativity is a crucial part of my mental health, so I'm trying to find more ways to integrate it into my daily life. I'll keep you posted on that, too - stay tuned!

Until next time…

Lots of love and bunches of hugs!
Paulette
