Welcome on the Podcast today we look at a new word each week. The Word for this week is 'Eager'. When we think of our creativity and the words we should think about how it relates to us and how we can use the encouraging aspects of the word to motivate and propel us forward into our creative pursuits.
You can listen to the podcast below.
Did you catch last weeks Art Journal Page video and the word 'Quiet'
Thank you for watching, Stay blessed and be a blessing
Glad you could join me today on the blog. In this video I share with you how I transform a page that will eventually end up in my art journal. You see it go through the various stages as the painting progresses.
The story is of a young girl and she is looking back over her life, all the things that got her to where she is and the relationships and choices that she made.
Don't be afraid to make changes in your creative work and over time you will begin to see how things will unfold.
Welcome to a new week of creativity. The word that starts us off this week in Creating in Faith is 'Quiet'. I started the Creating in Faith series as a reminder first to myself that each and every day I need to show up and do something creative.
When we show up in faith, we are met with ideas, strategies, revelations, answers and more!
When was the last time you actually had a moment of quiet to gather your thoughts? Are you able to take time out of your day just to think or are you one of those people who say they think better when there is stuff going on around them?
Join me on Wednesday for the Arts and Wellness Café where we will look at the idea of quiet in the art studio and in our creative walk.
I recently brought myself a Composition notebook to create an art journal with. The are fairly cheap and you can pick them up at the Dollar or local store. In this video I share with you how I transform the first pages.
I wanted to use supplies that I had been holding on for a while and got a selection of handmade papers, words, atc cards and Gelatos that I had sitting in a draw.
We can sometimes be really precious about our supplies, leaving them for what we call 'best' and not ending up using them at all and before you know it the supply has dried up and you have wasted your money.
What I plan to do with this art journal is to share some of the process pages - sharing techniques and ideas so that you can try them as well in your journals.
The more I played with the page the more supplies came out and I stencilled on the page and made marks and brought the page together.
I realised how many cards and papers that I had painted on and left in the bag that I was able to use. They now have a home in the composition art journal and it is also a great escape for me to be able to be a lot freer with my supplies.
