What is the MakeBigArt Community?
“Lisa has created, and continues to facilitate, a truly global supportive group.
There is opportunity to make comments, and to share ideas and resources with like-minded people.” ~A
The MakeBigArt community brings together artists passionate about their art to have meaningful conversations .
Sharing our stories and experiences along our journey so that we can…
create authentic, personally meaningful artwork
and
take on greater opportunities
in ways that brings us joy and amplify our energy.
What happens here?
"It is so helpful to be able to ask advice from the group and to find that someone always has a pertinent suggestion.
Each month we examine an aspect of art and share ideas and experience. These topics are not the usual run-of-the-mill subjects, but facets of the art world that I have never seen touched on elsewhere.
I have come to view this group as an absolute life line."
~Alison Currie, UK
The MakeBigArt Community is a private dedicated online conversation space.
Our aim is to learn together and from each other. We do this through sharing.
We share experiences and stories, provide empathy and celebrate each other’s successes and support each other during challenges.
We share resources and information.
We don’t give advice (unless specifically asked) because advice tends to stop a conversation in its track.
And our conversation is focused on art and being an artist. Yes, there is a bit of off topic conversation (connection and camaraderie matters) but this is a place to come for meaningful connections and conversations.
Who are we?
MakeBigArt allows me to be a part of a creative community while going at my own pace.
I am gaining valuable insights that will help me in my artistic journey, wherever that journey may take me.
I also value the diverse talents and media of those in this group, as my work straddles disciplines.
~Kathy Whitehorn – Lakewood Colorado
