Create Your "What Is?"
One way to keep your creativity fresh and vibrant is to create your "what is?" Whether you want to paint, sculpt, draw, dance, write or sing your "what is?" you will find that it can release a lot of creative energy.
Ask yourself, what is…
-
The best thing that could come through the door right now?
-
The most exciting thing you saw this week?
-
The fastest conversation you had yesterday?
-
The smallest person you noticed today?
-
The smelliest place you were last year?
-
The hardest thing you still have to do?
Once you have found your "what is?", lay out a way to represent it in your art. You can incorporate it into an unfinished piece of art, or start a brand new piece. The goal is to revitalize your art by representing your direct interpretation of the world.
