I have to say that I am finding this one hard…difficult to tie all the threads together – so here’s my first attempt…
My art connects the past to the present in poetic ways that can lead to healing and change.
Any feedback would be appreciated. ย Thanks so much.

I wonder if now is the time to pull out your psychoanalyst background and start by saying…As both a psychoanalyst and artist I am connecting the past and the present through symbol that can lead to healing and change.
It is just a thought but that beginning would sure get me interested!

Could you add in just a word or two what medium you use to do this? I’m intrigued and I love the rest of what you have written but I was wondering (without cheating and looking you up) how you do it ๐

I must be really behind in time zones. I could see all your elevator pitches going up but my masterclass wasn’t available until today!
For my work in progress:
“My current work combines the theory/notion of celebrity with the iconography of the saints on hand-made altar pieces.”
(I was playing with whether to use the work theory or notion)

Thanks. I like “notion” better as well. It also feels a bit more fantastical or whimsical than “idea”, which is what I am playing at.

To Michal:
I am currently working on hand-made alter-pieces which combine the notion of celebrity with the iconagraphy of Saints.
(like “notion”)
Also wanted to say your suggestions to others have been spot on– you are skilled with words and clever at eeking out intended meaning.
