There is no right or wrong in art.


We have all heard that saying, "The pen is mightier than the sword." Using our words may be a tried and true practice. It is far more effective to outwit an enemy than to simply prove ourselves through force. I have a better statement. "The paintbrush is mightier than any vice." What I have learned through countless attempts to calm my ever-bouncing brain is that art is the most effective medicine that I have ever come across. The most amazing thing about it is not only its genuine way of calming the storm that is my mind; but it has endless possibilities of creating new avenues of stress relief. The most beautiful thing about it is that there are no rights or wrongs in creation. There is only the artist and their surface. Once the choice of medium

has hit the choice of surface, everything is fair game. So I leave you with this tonight, challenge yourself to simply allow yourself to create without holding back. See where it takes you and how you feel as the end result.
