"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up," said Picasso.
Pablo's well-known quote recently encouraged me to become a five-year-old in my mind once again.
In a digitally-driven world Picasso helped me reconnect with the simple analog joy of scribbling and colouring and cutting out pieces of coloured paper.
To capture a thought. A reflection. A mood. A snippet. A moment. A like. A love. A day. A conversation.
With no fear of failing, and no sense of good or bad, I just drew.
Lots and lots.
Circles, squares, rectangles and lines.
Very soon, scribbling became the most important part of my day.
The chance to escape into my own head, and a world solely of my own creation.
One which I soon became confident enough to share with others on social media.
Hopefully encouraging others to explore their own personal creativity once again, too.
We ARE all artists at heart.
