Episode 4: Making Mistakes
Manage episode 321658449 series 3123593
Mistakes are pathways to new discoveries. Artist and educator Deb Putnoi describes what she finds in classrooms of all ages where students are scared to draw because they are scared to make a mistake or "do it wrong." Even young children are scared. Through simple open ended drawing exercises Putnoi through her Drawing Lab method helps students and teachers in the classroom let go of fear and find ways to embrace their "mistakes" and follow the journey of their lines. Once we learn how to still our fearful minds and engage directly with our creative selves then we start to see that learning, creating and living are messy endeavors and "mistakes" may be hidden opportunities if we just let ourselves stay open to possibility.
