arts and music
The seven "grand learners" have spent time
learning to see first and draw second. They
make interesting sculpture, collages, and
paintings in my little shop in the woods.
In this environment, the children have the
freedom to get to know me without distractions as we are at work together. There
are times of quiet and times of chatter. It
is during the latter that I have been asked
pointed questions, such as, why is my hair
gray, how long ago was I a child, did I
always know how to draw, how long does it
take to be an artist (I always say ten thousand hours), do I make money with
my art, and who did I vote for in the
last election?
Artist, grandmother, Linda RowellKelley with her husband, Terry, Mount
Desert Island, Maine.
A lifelong student of art, Linda studied
sculpture, painting and graphics at the
Portland School of Art (MECA) in Portland,
Maine. She is a prolific painter, who works
"outside the box" making political and
spiritual statements through art. As a
Reiki practitioner, her work has a healing
quality, a mixture of what is seen and what
is not. She walks the line between realistic
art, impressionism and abstraction.
Linda's work can be found in coastal galleries, restaurants, local inns and
businesses and you can find her on Facebook here.

I set the stage for learning and
teach as if I too am the student

My most recent one-on-one student is our four-yearold, Wiley. He and I had been discussing his curiosity around the importance of coloring in the lines. In
response, I told him it was his choice, but art is not about
being perfect.
Each child is coming from a different internal space and
gathers information when they are comfortable. I set the
stage for learning and teach as if I too am the student.
Coloring in the lines, or even over the lines should not be
a struggle for perfectionism, rather, it should just be part
of the process.
