Welcome to this new episode of Live Art Chat: What happened in 2022.
Lin and Sally-Ann review their year as artists and art teachers. They chat about how their work has developed over the twelve months and the themes that have been important. They also talk about some of the teaching and coaching projects completed. Lin also launched a new book Creative Connections A 30 Day Sketchbook Challenge from her sketchbook challenge in July, and she talks about the inspiration behind this. They also look forward to 2023 anticipating another busy year for both of them with online courses coming up in the Spring.

This isn’t exactly ‘ a reply ‘ but I need to tell you how much I’m enjoying “ Creative Connections “. It’s helping me to realise what was wrong with my attitude to my work, why I felt it so wrong sometimes to actually go in the studio ( to the point of feeling sick )….I knew all the stuff about experimenting, just throwing myself into it and all those things Nicolas Wilton talks about….. I’m 84 and have been at this painting lark a long time ….but I was just getting stale, in my head and spirit.( artistic spirit )
Your talk at the Cupola made me feel engaged again, and the book is a revelation. THANK YOU so much.
We met after your talk……
