Welcome to the Society of Liberated Artists
|
A Keynote Speech for an Art Related Conference:
This keynote not only officially welcomes you to an Art Conference but liberates you
from:
1) Falling prey to the usual conference perils such as, you know… the kind
of comparison where you feel like giving up, going home and binging on Netflix;
2) Nagging fears that taunts you and insists that everyone else will notice you’re
not good enough, and
3) Drowning in the sea of so many techniques, choices,
mediums, papers, people, possibilities and instructions.
Imagine instead of being stymied by these things, sailing through the conference feeling confident, courageous, and maybe even a little cocky and then noticing that this newly discovered power follows you home and sets you on fire creatively for the rest of your life! It has happened, and it’s contagious.
Through humor, story, and the revelation of cleverly designed visual tools you will:
• Learn three secrets unfettered artists rely on for perseverance,
fearlessness, and follow-through
• Tap into intuitive abilities that can drive and restore creativity.
• Get to know in a kinda left-field way, your new right-brained friends.

Workshop
Kamikaze Drawing and Low Flying Creativity
|
Description: Using fleeting multimedia projections, poetry, music, the silly and
absurd you will be tricked into effortlessly colliding with your true creative voice
without overthinking or scaring it away. Any perfectionistic tendencies, hesitancy,
and/or immobilizing self-judgment will be terribly confused and ask to be excused
from this workshop.
I’m pretty sure you will go away with at least three sketches you’ll want to frame,
share with the world, or simply become.
