Be a student... get messy.

I took a class this weekend.  The teacher becomes student and bliss is achieved.  I got messy. I made mistakes, as Miss Frizzle from The Magic School Bus always advised. 
Sabrina Ward Harrison does something called Spill.  It may not be new in concept to create modern art with spilled paint and messy media, but, what she helps the student do is to find your part in color.  It is essential to grow.  To have goals and work towards them makes us healthy. 
I wanted last year to use more color, to have a messier time.  I did.  This year, already, I am pushing further.  I want to experience the senses and live with out judging my art and my efforts as a teacher and person.  Take a class.  Be vulnerable. It will be good to grow out of your old shell and use all you know to help you understand all you don't.
