A four-year-old will get you unstuck - Austin Kleon When I talk to artists who are “stuck” I often think they should be prescribed a session with some four-year-olds.
“I think most teachers try to act like they’re a higher status, and they’re above us. It’s probably because our parents are paying them to teach us things. Maybe they’re just taking the teaching part a little too serious. But our art teacher Ms. Grierson isn’t like that. She’ll admit her mistakes. She’ll point out her own flaws. She gives off this vibe like she’s not just a teacher, and you can talk to her about more than just school. You can tell her about your personal life. But not just your problems-- you can also tell her fun stuff like what you’re going to do on the weekend. She’s also crazy. Really crazy. One kid brought in an umbilical cord from his mother, and everyone was freaking out, but she didn’t even care. I used to think that art was like drawing a person and it had to look perfect. But Ms. Grierson says, and I’m quoting her on this: ‘Art doesn’t have to look good, because the process is more important. It’s about how you came up with the idea. We’re here to pose questions, not give answers.’”
