Weekly Creative Play

Today's Be Creative Session was an opportunity to tap back into some of the pieces we Created over the 2 weeks I was away from my home studio. We used our Acrylic Paint Markers as well as miscellaneous black pens and markers. Feel free to add any color to any piece you may be working on, or seems to call to you. This Creative Session was really valuable to me because it was rushed and felt 'squeezed in' to my schedule. I'm incredible grateful for the space to show up authentically and simply flex my Creative muscles for the sake of exercising. Thinking Creatively is a valuable resource that we can build within if we choose to. Happy to be doing this with you!

Welcome to another Be Creative Session - On the Road again. Today we played with Acrylic Paints outside on my parent's porch in Evergreen, CO. Please be mindful of how permanent Acrylic paint can be, this will require either quick cleanup (while it's still wet), or preparing your surface by covering with newspaper or a reusable tablecloth. Wear old clothes or an apron. You'll notice today we used a lot more paper towels than usual, this is also because of the permanence of Acrylic paint - I'm away from my studio rags and didn't want to be staining all the towels in my mom's kitchen. You'll want to have plenty of ability to wipe up paint, there will be excess with this method. We used watercolor paper cut into 1/4 sheets, any card stock, poster board, or mixed media paper will work great. If you have any scraping tools (from screen printing perhaps) collect them, otherwise use recyclables for both your painting surface and to scrape the paint. Hope you enjoy this fun new method I've been playing with!

This week, our Creative Session is held thousands of miles away from my home Art Studio in FL... we come to you from my parent's back porch in Evergreen, CO. We play with watercolors on watercolor paper. We do use a pencil to sketch a landscape but it's not necessary to follow along.
