Even a little bit of letting go makes space for something new.
It is challenging for a mixed media artist to let go of things. Because we think, “Oh I could use this for something.”
Yes but, how long have we been saving it?
- Months?
- Years?
- Decades?
I challenge you to experience the opening created by letting go.
Try one of these approaches:
- Sort through one box and trash 1/2 of it
- Tackle one small table and let go of anything you don’t use right now
- Get rid of old work – (it might be weighing you down)
It is hard to let go.
But I always feel lighter and ready for something new when I create an opening by throwing out something that no longer feeds me.
