Welcome to today's post, I am taking part in the 31 day blog challenge as part of the Ultimate Blog Challenge for October.
Listen to the Podcast
Today I wanted to share one of my favorite challenges and this was my 31 Art Studio Essentials.
I created a challenge called The Art Studio Essentials Challenge, and it was probably one of my favorite challenges where I took a closer look at the 31 supplies that I most like to used, it included not only looking but also playing with my favorite art supplies.
There are times when you need to reintroduce yourself to your supplies, many of which can be neglected if you have quite a few supplies. I have had some supplies that I hadn't even used dry up, partly because of the change in climate but they could no longer be used.
The Challenge also made me realize how much I enjoyed spending time creating in my art studio. The important thing you have to remember is that you take the time out each and every day.
Art and creativity is an integral part of life and it is something that I believe we should all take time out to do every day. You may not be inclined to draw or work in your art journal, your thing might be photography, dance or music, but you must find time to tune into your creative passions.
Day 3 Insights
- I didn't start out having the studio space that I currently work in now, I guess I have grown into it over the years and started out on the edge of my kitchen table. I had to put everything away at the end of every day, but I made what I had work for me at the time. We don't necessarily need a large space to do something creative and you need to think outside of the box at times.
What is your creative space like, are you utilizing the space you have or do you wish for a different space? Very often we do not see what we have in front of us and desire more, more space more time, more supplies.
Tomorrow I will share some of my favorite supplies from the essentials of my Art Studio. I hope over the challenge you find some time to be creative and stretch yourself.
Why not join me each day for the rest of October for the Ultimate Blog Challenge as we dive into to some exciting challenges and look at ways in which they can impact on your own life and possibly challenges that you might decide to do.
I look forward to seeing you tomorrow, it is never too late to start! The main thing is to take one step at a time and do something that you find interesting.
Stay blessed and be a blessing.
