With so many people unhappy, searching for jobs, shifting jobs, building their business, practice or consultancy a …

We think we are not good enough, our work is not good enough, we lack enough talent or imagination or commitment, we can’t trust the future, we need more ambition and drive, and on and on. We cannot get beyond our fears and start doing our artistic work full-out and then putting our work out there for other …

Creativity is an expression of life.  It is a form of communication, as important as spoken language, but all too often we are cut off from this part of ourselves. We are encouraged to draw, paint and dance as children, but as adults we are told that these endeavors are secondary to more practical concerns. Nothing could be further from the truth.  Our ability to transform concepts, ideas, stories or life experience into images, objects, sounds and movement is essential to a full and rich expres …

Think of Picasso’s Guernica Night, Susan Crile’s Abu Graib series, and more locally to Connecticut, the Cycle of Terror and Tragedy, September 11 by Graydon Parrish housed at the New Britain Museum of American Art. As they say, a picture says a thousand words and what better way to convey these kinds of messag …
