I'M HERE FOR THE

CREATIVE LIFESTYLE

BLOG

LIVE LIKE AN ARTIST
(Or at least come along and see how an artist lives)

“…there is evidence that engagement with artistic activities,

as an initiator of one's own creative efforts,
can enhance one's moods, emotions, and other psychological states as well as have a salient impact on important physiological parameters.”
