Artists know the power of seeing.
Sometimes, looking around is a way of coming back to yourself! 😎

"Making this reminds me of my old neighborhood. I miss my old house and my friends. I don't have any friends at my new house, but I created my own new neighborhood with my art that's really big and beautiful."

MOVE BEFORE YOU MAKE. 👣

Artists often ask their bodies to stay still: sitting at a desk, standing at an easel, concentrating on tiny details.

Wiggle, twist, shake, and stretch! Listen to your body.

The power of a dot...

Have you ever zoned out while creating with a simple limitation, like using only dots? Sometimes, giving your brain one small thing to focus on can turn into the most calming, meditative experience. As part of our "Artists Are From Everywhere" series, artists at Pure Hope Project explored dot painting inspired by the work of Australian Aboriginal artist Clifford Possum Tjapaltjarri.

Sometimes, all you need is one little dot to get started! ⚫🖌

➡ The application mentions mentoring a teen artist. What does that mean?

We equip you with tools and skills to do a short (but impactful) mentorship with a teen interested in the arts! There's a pretty amazing collaborative project built into the mentorship that makes the experience unforgettable. 👏
