OCEAN CITY.— No. one '.<br />
can deny that it's a great ,<br />
way to spend a Sunday<br />
afternoon —r'dipping hands<br />
in mushy, brightly colored<br />
, paints; twirling .colors. on<br />
"Children are<br />
pretty free<br />
creatively;<br />
adults are not"<br />
— finger painting<br />
teacher<br />
paper after paper; recognizing<br />
a tornado here, an angel<br />
there; and not having to<br />
worry about getting paint<br />
on the carpet.<br />
But the difference<br />
between this session <strong>of</strong> Sunday<br />
finger painting at the<br />
Oceait <strong>City</strong> Arts. Center and.<br />
millions- <strong>of</strong> others is that<br />
adults are the ones having<br />
die fun. The class is open to<br />
any-grpwn-up who wants<br />
to experience, a new way <strong>of</strong><br />
releasing stress and unlocking<br />
the inner child. Finger<br />
painting teacher Elinor:<br />
Mattern adds that it is a<br />
good class "for artists and<br />
for people Who were artists.<br />

but forgot." '<br />
Mattern .-didn't start out<br />
teaching. finger painting to<br />
adults. She is a first grade<br />
teacher-'and has had years<br />
<strong>of</strong> experience watching art<br />
flow, freely from elementary<br />
school students.<br />
"Children are pretty free<br />
creatively," she observes<br />
"Adults are not."<br />
Like many adults, Mattern<br />
greatly enjoyed her<br />
own artistic ability, and at<br />
the same time struggled<br />
with self-doubt. She overcame<br />
this by exhibiting her<br />
art work in shows Where<br />
she won* awards and<br />
received recognition.<br />
Gradually, she began to<br />
