If you could use a little creative self-care at the moment (and want to show you care while you're at it), then this is the perfect opportunity to do both!
Â
Following my month-long hiatus for a full hip replacement (not to mention the ongoing pandemic), this month's Muse Letter is fittingly themed around healing and care. For my own small part to spark worldwide "creative recovery," I'm participating in Creativity & Wellbeing Week 2021, May 17-23, sponsored by London Arts and Health and the Culture, Health & Wellbeing Alliance.Â
Â
For this event, I am hosting a Messy, Magical, Art-Making Muse Date on Thursday, May 20 (6:30-9 pm, Amsterdam time). This 2.5-hour online creative workshop will be dedicated to COVID-19 relief efforts in India. Instead of making a sliding-scale payment to me through my Kissing the Muse website, I encourage you to donate directly to any of the following charitable organizations or one of your own favorites:Â

Â
Or, if you prefer, you can also purchase a Muse Date ticket through my website, and I will donate the entire ticket price (minus the 2.5% platform fee my website charges me for all ticket sales) on your behalf.

In the meantime, here's some art and musings, from my heart to yours
