In an irresistible invitation to lighten up, look around, and live an unscripted life, a master of the art of improvisation explains how to adopt the attitudes and techniques used by generations of musicians and actors.
Let’s face it: Life is something we all make up as we go along. No matter how carefully we formulate a “script,” it is bound to change when we interact with people with scripts of their own. Improv Wisdom shows how to apply the maxims of improvisational theater to real-life challenges-whether it’s dealing with a demanding boss, a tired child, or one of life’s never-ending surprises.
Patricia Madson distills thirty years of experience into thirteen simple strategies, including “Say Yes,” “Start Anywhere,” “Face the Facts,” and “Make Mistakes, Please,” helping readers to loosen up, think on their feet, and take on everything life has to offer with skill, chutzpah, and a sense of humor.
Steven Pressfield describes an exercise from Improv Wisdom and says that this book is on his short list of indispensable books.

Are you new to painting and are

fraid of where to begin, or how to approach that daunting blank canvas without “ruining” it? Are you an experienced painter who’s just stuck in a rut or tired of tedious long-winded paintings that lack excitement? Are you looking for an emotional, cathartic experience with art that lets you get a lot off your chest?

This course is for all of you. I show you how to throw caution to the wind and just paint with a free and carefree approach

that makes painting fun again. No one is watching, there are no expectations, and you are liberated to just create.

You’ll find that your painting becomes a reflection of you, as

you get it all out of your head, heart, and soul, and throw it up on the canvas to enjoy.

Have a great time painting, and learn a bit about yourself along the way. Maybe it sounds cheesy, but it really is a lot of fun.

For painters of all skill levels. I teach this course in acrylics and

use very inexpensive materials just to make it more approachable by anyone.

You’ll be surprised at the beautiful art inside you waiting to burst forth onto the canvas!
