Joyful Spontaneity—what a wonderful combination of sentiments! After interviews from artists Jessica Swift and Este MacLeod, we are going to embrace these qualities to create art that takes us on a journey into the unknown. The artwork will reveal itself to us while we practice patience and have faith in the creative process. We will unleash our joy, play with wild abandon and enjoy the present moment rather than focus on any preconceived desired outcome.

When you do things from your soul, you feel a river of joy within you.
