3 Tips for Boosting Creativity: for artists and hand letterers.
What an interesting few weeks.
Our daily lives have been turned upside down with this virus and I can’t imagine a single person who hasn’t been impacted by what’s happening right now. I’m navigating what’s happening as best as I can and am happy that I have a business that is primarily online that I run out of my home office. It’s a little more challenging for my husband and kids who are not as accustomed to being home 24/7 - we are all making it work!
These last few days especially, I feel very fortunate to have my creative practice where I get a reprieve from the news, social media posts and tv reports. The time I spend at my desk in the studio portion of my office, is a welcomed distraction, but it also fills me up with hope and joy and creative energy that spills into other parts of my life.
I want to share moments of inspiration for you, opportunities for you to learn and grow, with tangible practices of watercolor painting, modern calligraphy or lettering, and even maybe how to grow your own online calligraphy business from home. My creative monkey brain is racing with ideas!
These last few days I’ve been busy creating new YouTube tutorials, new online class ideas and freebies for the Creative Library. I’m doing this in the hopes that I can pass on some of the joy and energy boost that I get when I’m creating art and through a tactile artistic practice.
So far this week on YouTube, I shared my 3 Tips for Boosting Creativity - specifically for artists and hand letterers…
It’s a little different from my usual tutorial style videos like this one…
But I’m excited to share a variety and hopefully answer your questions about watercolor painting, lettering and even more about how to practice more, reach your goals for your practice and even build an online business like I have been doing.
Please make sure to Subscribe to my channel so you get access to the videos each time I release them and let me know in the comments what you think or what you’d like to see more of.
We suddenly have lots of time to watch TV, the news, be on social media and watch funny animals videos. But let’s also be intentional with that time and learn something new, explore creativity and grow a skill too!
