Mixing Up Midlife

Remember when you were in elementary or middle school and got to take art classes? We want to recapture that feeling and see if we can use drawing as a way to be more creative. The problem is, neither of us are all that good at it. Terri feels like it might be more frustrating than not and Melissa would like to see if it can be an entry into a different way to be creative. Terri and Melissa are going Back to Basics by taking a virtual drawing class on Creative Live. We'll begin our 5 day journey into drawing on 9/25.
