Drawing Inspiration 72: Unleashing the Artist with Astronaut Dr. Sian Proctor
Mike creates a 3D render of his art for a visually impaired friend and continues his live draws. Mike is then joined by artist, poet, and astronaut Dr. Sian Proctor to talk about her creative journey. They explore her early interest in science and nature and how her career in science led her to unleash the artist and poet within. Dr. Proctor shares her experience as an artist and poet in space and also talks about her new book. Her homework involves the exploration of the concept of JEDI. \
