MAC's blog

This space started as a need to learn a new technology in a hands-on way and attempt to categorize different aspects of my work world into my own personal Virgo sensibilities. It is now a fun experiment and a work in progress and an oddly satisfying way be creative.

Teaching the Arts
There are a lot of counterbalances in teaching the arts.

  • being an artist vs being a teacher
  • the sublime of the arts discipline vs learning basic fundamentals
  • encouragement vs tools to make the work better
  • the student’s intention vs requirements of the assignment

I’m looking for a place where the two aren’t necessarily balanced. One may be exerting more force in a particular situation but together there is a wonderful place of relaxation and suspension where they support each other.
