Snapshot from My Studio: November 23, 2018 at 04:24PM

Thank you to @ericavmarx for inviting me to participate in her live coaching + art experiment this week! What an honor. This is what I ended up creating during the 45 minute live coaching session, as the live-streamed artist.

I did NOT intend it to turn into a graphic recording session, truly I didn’t! I had planned to DOODLE! As in abstract art. But I picked up a Neuland marker… and, well, I wrote some words, and it ended up becoming much more graphic recording than abstract art. The client still found it useful—it’s not that it was bad at all, or that graphic recording was “worse” and abstract art would have been “better”… It was just *different* from what any of us expected going in!

Life is like that. It flummoxes our expectations. We roll with it… or not! 😊

The whole experience was profound. I’m looking forward to doing it again in December! Though I plan to stick with different tools next time, to force myself to stay abstract, purely to see what that’s like. 😊
