I'm changing my mind and idea for my skool. I would like to build a community of creative expressionists. A place where anyone, especially those suffering from a mental illness can safely gather, be encouraged, find acceptance all while showcasing their creative creations. Community members can post and sell their works of art. The sale of the members art benefits the community and it's members not only financially but also gives the artist a better sense of pride and accomplishment. How many of you out there who read this use art as a means to express yourself at times? Are there and sufferers of mental illness that find art therapy to be beneficial, easing some of all of the symptoms of the mental illness you live with?

Let's get to know each other! Comment below sharing where you are in the world, a photo of your workspace, and something you like to do for fun. 😊I'm in Franklin Indiana and here's a picture of my creative closet filled with a multitude of miscellaneous craft supplies. Supplies that allow me to use creative expression to help minimize any negative feelings felt due to my mental illness. Show us where you store your trash pickings and tell us your best dumpster diving or found on roadside dead treasure.
