I wonder sometimes if it’s this, our usual pace of life with an abundance of
stimulation and access to technology, that makes it hard for many people to
enjoy spending more time in nature. It can be an uncomfortable adjustment,
but the benefits of slowing down for a while are well worth the effort.
M.J.: Interesting insight. Any advice for young artists in our community?
Jessica: Enjoy making art, practice as much as you can, and keep finding
ways to fit it in even when life gets busy. I have had so many older adult
students who put art aside for much of their lives, and wish they hadn’t. If
you want to pursue a career in art, it’s possible but be ready to work really
hard, be humble enough to take opportunities to learn, and prepare to deal
with a lot of rejection. It’s worth doing, regardless of your skill set.
