Cristina Trapani-Scott: The Practice of Wonder

Welcome to my channel. I'm Cristina Trapani-Scott, a GenX artist trying to figure out what it really means to build a creative life with a full.

I’m a part-time artist with a day job, but I’m wondering if I can slowly—and realistically—make the shift to becoming a full-time artist. I don’t have it all figured out. There will be experiments, detours, ups and downs, and probably plenty of things that don’t work.

I live in the foothills of the Colorado Rocky Mountains, so you’ll see some of the landscape around me, along with glimpses into my studio practice, paintings, creative projects, and the other little things that inspire me along the way.

This is a place to explore creativity, make things, notice the world, and see what happens when you take your creative life seriously—at any age.

Come along as I figure it out. Maybe, just maybe, I’ll build the creative life I’ve been dreaming about.
