Description
Remember that creative blocks are temporary
Can you identify your creative block - how long has it been?
What are some of the things that are happening in your life right now?
What does you inner critic say?
Does the fear of failure prevent you from getting started?
Who are you afraid of being rejected by?
Are you aware or can you tell when creativity flows through you?
Do you have a creative routine - what is it?
Do you do negative self talk - what do you tell yourself?
How to break those creative blocks
How would approach those blocks if you were a different artist?
Does the blank paper paralyze you - what can you do about it?
Ideas
Get out and get a new perspective
Try painting something else
Do you give yourself permission to explore
Look for patterns
Try painting by temperature
Give yourself a deadline, anything that forces you to be creative
Think about these times as a gestation time
Try not to be so serious, have some fun, and write down your ideas.
Do you think you don’t have the time to be creative, how can you create the time?
When are you going to show up?
Dates & times:
Brainstorm - write down ideas no matter how silly or grand it is
Keep it fun - Happy Painting
