In case you didn't know it...gratitude is good for you! (READ THIS!)
We all have so many things in our lives to be thankful for...many that we take for granted every day. Artists through the ages have been inspired by the joys and struggles in their lives. I 'd like you to take the opportunity to reflect on your life and all that you have. Complete the following brainstorming list in your sketchbook and use it to inspire a work of art in the media of your choice. You may focus on one aspect of the list, or do a work that is all-encompassing.
