Why do you create? What brings you to the page and into your studio or creative space, the paint, the thread, the glue? Your creative “why” is your foundation, it is important to articulate it.
It can ground you when you’re lost, fuel you when you’re tired, and give purpose to the process. Check out the following Video:
What you can try
- Create a page around your creative purpose. Use images, color, and affirmations.
- Spend time today reflecting on what drives your creativity. Is it joy? Healing? Connection? Play?
- Once you find your “why,” document it. Write it down. Make a visual reminder.
This will become your anchor in future moments of doubt or creative fatigue.
