The Art Process with Kathy Leader

Hi everyone! Welcome to The Art Process Channel!
My name is Kathy (I also go by Kate) and I created this channel because in my teaching art studio (based in southern California), I encounter so many people who feel fear, self criticism and  anxiety around making THEIR art.  My goal is to encourage EVERYONE to derive benefit from the art process, whether you call yourself an artist or not (and you SHOULD call yourself an artist!)

This channel shows the many different ways to approach mixed media abstract work by letting go of the outcome and allowing the process to unfold. I will show you different techniques, you will see my own process at play and start feeling free to experiment and join our creative community.

I believe in the healing power of art making for ALL! Whether you are a beginner, part of a team or a practicing artist: “Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time”
