The Holistic Approach

"A Holistic Approach to the Arts" is a groundbreaking approach to creating art and being an artist, developed by Adam Watts. This approach helps to guide artists toward their unique identity by viewing their process and result through the lenses of The Four Pillars: Psychology, Philosophy, Spirituality & Physiology. This is a highly  conceptual yet pragmatic approach that can unlock an artist's true potential.

Broken City Artists is rooted in an idea...

That art is, first and foremost, about expression & connection. 

We are an open collective of like-minded artists and arts-mentors who put the expression of artistic truths & the imagination above the pursuit of the ego and of greed. We believe artistic fulfillment and a thriving career begins with authenticity.

Our aim is to help build a community around these ideas and to offer a new, yet historically bolstered approach to aiding artists, via our mentor program, in their continual process of growth. This approach developed by BCA founder Adam Watts is referred to as:

"A Holistic Approach to the Arts & Being an Artist"

We invite you to join us in a movement toward following instincts over the status-quo and toward individual innovation and personal expression over the chasing of trends.
