Why Make Artwork? What's the Point?

What's the point of making art? In today's episode I talk about this question and how I answered it for myself. One of my students brought it up while making her watercolor painting in my Make the Work Coaching Program and I knew I needed to bring this to the podcast for those of you that ask that same question. I hope by the end of this episode you have a deeper understanding of why it's important for you and how your art might be essential to giving you experiences you can't find elsewhere. You might also find answers inside yourself about why it's important to share your art with the world. I have my own personal experience and ideas about this after grappling with this for several years inside my own art career.

I'm Catherine and I'm a full time artist, photographer, intuitive healer and transformational guide. I got sober from a meth addiction when I was 18 years old and have 36 years of continuous sobriety. I apprenticed with Miguel Ruiz, Author of the 4 Agreements and bring the Toltec Practices and Wisdom into everythinng I teach and do & I'm certified in Subconscious Reprogramming techniques to release limiting blocks from the root. I offer Artwork as sacred medicine, embodiment photography sessions, online courses & art/healing retreats in France. I'm the proud single mama of my 15 year old son Max, who happens to have Down syndrome. We make art together as a form of art as acitivism raising awareness about Down syndrome and Ableism.
