In today's episode, we want to introduce you to the amazing artist, teacher, mother, and overall amazing person Kristina Nosal! Kellee kicks off the episode delving into the magic that makes artists, and the inspiration and joy that is brought out in others when people share their gift and their passion with the world. 

Kristina is the perfect example of someone sharing their gift, following a passion, and inspiring others. Kristina works as a high school art teacher and has transformed her art room from the boring structure of a dreaded art class to a freeform, self-directed art class that is not only encouraging students to have fun and explore their creativity but is also providing them with a therapeutic outlet.

Kristina shares that not only are these young adults choosing their AP projects around art journaling and her class, but for some students, it may be the most influential class that they are taking in school because they are getting emotional support from it, and in a world where young adults and youth, in general, is so influenced and under pressure from social media and electronics, art journaling can be something that can disconnect them from that and allow them to explore their artistic voices, which they may come to find are just their own voices as they are discovering who they are! 

Don't forget art! Kellee and Kristina share some of their recent teachings (like Kristina being in Deck of Dreams 365!), and favorite supplies they're using right now, and discuss just how magical mixed media can be when you start exploring all of the endless opportunities at your fingertips. There are so many goodies you can pull away from this episode, go check it out for yourself!
