I started this painting last week because I've been installing for a while. I've known I wanted to create a painting for a while. But every time I've done a painting in the past, it's been like, OK, you got to make the painting that you see in your head and just make it come to life. But this time I'm like, well, I'm just going to do exactly what I'm doing in the art journal. I'm going to take it one step at a time and I'm going to let the artwork unfold as it wants to unfold.
How often do we truly let go and trust the process? In this engaging episode of 'Born to Create', host Maria-Katharina Richters sits down with Cindy Ingram, a dynamic artist, writer, coach, and creator of the Art and Self Podcast. Cindy's journey from an art teacher to a pioneering voice in the world of art connections is nothing short of inspiring.
With over two decades of experience in art museums and classrooms, Cindy has dedicated her life to making art accessible and meaningful for everyone. She started the Art Class Curator in 2014, which evolved into the Curated Connections Library, a resource designed to creatively teach art in ways that support critical learning skills and foster lifelong connections with art.

In this episode, Cindy shares her personal story of embracing intuition and allowing the artistic process to guide her. She discusses how art can be a powerful tool for self-discovery, clarity, and action. Whether you're an artist or someone looking to connect more deeply with yourself through creativity, Cindy's insights are sure to resonate.
