I am creative and artistic and would enjoy doing art with young people.
I enjoy trying new things and new artistic venues. I believe it is important to invest time into art and imagination, especially at a young age.
It fosters idea recognition, alternatives and problem solving skills. It also helps with communicating with others and entertaining ourselves in times of boredom.
