I hope you’re ready to play! Today I share a art challenge lesson from the membership.
My goal is to get you to the table and just do something. To stop waiting for inspiration for a master piece to come before you create.
I came across this quote several weeks ago, and it’s perfect for this and all creative endeavors.
“As you start to walk on the way, the way appears.” Rumi
The main focus of this quote is that there is action…. That you have to show up… and ideas will come. That confidence will come. That learning will happen.
The way to what you want to create doesn’t happen by thinking about it (yes, thinking helps), but you have to dabble, experiment, and show up for your creative practice, and then the way will appear.
So let’s play today. Make a promise to show up for you and your art today!
Have fun watching and always know that you are loved.
