Hey there, creative friends! Happy Monday to you! It’s snowing (again) here in Connecticut, and I am over it! I thought it would be rainy today, and I was so pumped for the snow to melt.
But alas…more snow.
[insert sad trombone noise]
I’m not totally crushed, though, because I have exciting news to share…
I launched a YouTube channel!
That’s right! My senior yearbook was right when they did a spread of “Where will they be in 20 years?” and mine was starring in her own sitcom.
Maybe it’s a bit more legwork being a one-woman show, but I am incredibly happy to be sharing my journey in this new format.
Creative Living with Shannon Sorensen offers a glimpse into my life as a full time working artist (and working at home…and working at home with kids), offer creativity pep talks for exploring your creativity and doing more of what you love and enjoy, and inspiration!
You’ll get to watch me work on paintings and drawing coloring pages, with my insights into the work, the process, what inspires each piece, and some little technical details.
I will sit down for a weekly series called “Creativity Pep Talks”, offering wisdom, guidance and encouragement to get your week started.
And I want to share behind the scenes, places I love that inspire me, little Q&As, tutorials, and whatever else this channel might become!
Here’s my first creativity pep talk episode - I am using Art Oracle cards to draw wisdom and guidance from great artists - their work, their struggles, their lives - to translate into some present day encouragement and inspiration.
