Dear Western Region members,
As Spring is swiftly moving to Summer I am sure you, like myself, are looking forward to
the much welcomed reprieve that comes at the end of the School Year. I love every minu
of teaching and the many varied tasks I get to do as an art educator but when summerlooms, one of the things I am most excited about is time that can be devoted almost exclu
sively to creating artwork.
During the academic year, my focus rests primarily on the work of teaching, leaving littleroom and space for making. I admire those colleagues who have a weekly art-making ga
ering and work together. I haven’t yet found the way to fit that into my schedule. Yet, ra
ther than feeling guilty about what I should be doing, or comparing myself to others process and products, I’vechosen to focus this spring on ‘filling my bucket’ with creative acts that bring joy. These include working in th
garden, hiking, biking, and reading books (unrelated to academia)!
Recently, I picked up Elizabeth Gilbert’s 2015 book titled, “Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear.” Readin
this book has provided perspective and possibility. If you haven’t read it, I encourage you to do so. One of thereasons I justify not creating is putting everything and everyone else first. I don’t make time for my work. Gilbsuggests that creativity is a relationship cultivated with the mysterious; we need, she advises, to courageously
show up, and be present to DO the work. In this way, when inspiration, the mysterious, or if you’d like to call i
the Divine, deigns to grace us with its presence, we are ready and prepared. This summer, I commit to showing
up daily for my creative process and cultivating that crucial relationship. What commitment will you make for
yourself? Imagine what growth and personal joy will come from putting ourselves at the top of our list!
Best wishes,
Darden
Greetings From Our Regional Director

Mobile Making with Artist Matthew Burgy
The winter workshop with local artist Matthew Burgy went offlike a well- balanced mobile! The large group that attended hadloads of fun learning the math of how to make the perfect mo-
bile. Hearing how he was inspired by the artist AlexanderCalder started to stir our own creative juices in order to make
many amazing mobiles. Matthew has shared his ability tomake wonderful art form with students at local art centers
as well as fellow artists wanting to learn the trade. I knowfrom personal experience that this form of art making canappeal to any age group. Many of those who attended
were bouncing ideas around in order to try and find a place to put this project in their plans for next year.Matthew had many of his works on display such as jewel-ry and his own personal mobiles to help inspire us. Hewas also very kind to share some of the beautiful beads
he makes for his jewelry. If you are interested in lookingat some of Matthews amazing artwork you can look at hisartworks on his Facebook page Matthew R. Burgy Art-works.
Make sure you try to catch the next workshop that will
surely get your creativity flowing and help give you that
extra boost during the year that we so often need!!
