This is a blog all about creativity, art, kids, and kids with art, kids with creativity, art with creativity, and all of the above. It's for kids, parents, teachers, families, and anyone interested in fostering creativity. Welcome!
A little about me: I'm a longtime cartoonist and creator of "Brainwaves" and "The Mommy Track'd Funny Papers." You can see more about those here, at my website. I've also worked as a designer, information architect and creative director in film/video production, software, design consulting, and games.
A little about why I'm starting this blog:
1. Let's face it, our educational systems suffer from a chronic lack of resources and the arts are always on the losing end of that equation.
2. The arts teach creative thinking and problem solving, some of the most important skills that we can give our kids in an ever-changing world.
3. As an art instructor I have found that I don't have enough hours to meet the demand for workshops and classes. So I'm hoping to benefit more people faster this way.
4. I just love doing this stuff.
This blog is an offshoot of my other blog, because I felt this stuff needed its own home. So, there are several posts over there you should read too.
Check back often, and be sure to subscribe via email so you can get updates, special projects, and anything else I can think to throw at you. There will be email stuff that does not appear in this blog, so be sure to sign up!
Thanks for reading!
