Amy Digi is a New York artist drawing and painting the world around her
In this episode we talk about how art transcend language, how painting can improve mental health (and make you a better person) and the important of consistency to accomplish things
I really enjoyed talking to Amy and I hope you will enjoy the conversation too
Key take aways
- Art is visual and needs no communication
- Adults are allowed to play
- Art is an introspective activity. Is mental health. If my hands are moving, I have a time out. If I have time out, I become a better person.
- Physical activity help children cope with emotion. With anxiety. If they are not physical, they are going to make bad decisions.
- Painting teaches you the importance of consistency. Matisse said: “showing up is the hardest part.” If you show up to do the work, everything else happens.
- Painting involves all your senses and gives me a rush that cannot be replaced.
