Finding Your Tribe

My creation from the Dream Big kit.

Artists' work can sometimes be lonely. Especially writing and the visual arts. Although it is a delight to create a story or a painting, it is a solitary task. Even more so when you are totally immersed in the process. The world is there and you are here and time stands still.

But it is also good to connect to a tribe. I have said this before. Connecting to other artists can bring new energy to your work. And with social media, like blogs and Facebook, there are endless possibilities to connect. You find one tribe that leads to another that leads to another and another.

I just recently joined another digital art Facebook group called Mischief Circus. I found the group through another artist who shared a piece of artwork on Facebook that she made from a digital kit she had collaborated on at Mischief Circus. I followed the link, did some exploring and joined.

Mischief Circus' Facebook group perfectly compliments their online store which is a collaboration of 17 individual and groups of designers. Mischief Circus is chock full digital kits at reasonable prices.
I was hooked. You can only post artwork to their Facebook group that is made with elements from a Mischief Circus kit (a brilliant marketing model) so I went shopping! I purchased Marsha Jorgensen's Tumble Fish Studio Dream Big kit which included over 150 elements.

Let the fun begin!
