Her creative adventure began as a way for her to get messy, ditch perfectionism, stay accountable, and consistently create art. Other artists wanted the same in their creative practice and a business and a community were born. Behind Get Messy's digital doors are thousands of creative sparks taught by more than 100 teachers, and a supportive group of fellow artists who love sharing their artwork. <p/> A self-taught artist, Caylee believes in making a whole bunch of really average art in order to get to the good stuff. She's honored to lead a community of incredible humans passionate about cultivating their art practice. Caylee lives in Germany. <p/> Get Messy Art website: getmessyart.com/ <br> Get Messy Art Instagram: @getmessyartjournal <br> Caylee Grey Instagram: @cayleegrey</p>
