    I used to be  — 1 month ago

    really creative. I came across my old photography class pictures and felt like they belonged to someone else. I can’t believe my own husband doesn’t know how creative I was. Not a single painting, drawing, or art inspired photograph has been attempted in almost 3 years now. This is so sad. I would love to make this a regular part of my life again.

    Untitled  — 2 months ago

    The scrap booking has been coming along really well, although really slowly. Hey, I can’t help that I’m a perfectionist and it takes me hours to do one page. I just can’t wait to get caught up though…I still have to scrap book 8 vacations. Geez louise.

    Getting there  — 2 months ago

    These past few months I have really been getting my groove back!

    I made my brother and his wife a painting for Christmas, and they were really impressed with it! I started taking craft classes, so every week I have 2 hours in which I have to be creative! I started a blog about snippets of conversation, that I want to refer to for inspiration later on, and I have spent one lunch hour so far having coffee and writing!!

    This is a good year for this goal!!

    I feel...something.  — 10 months ago

    I think I’m getting my creativity back. I’ve been having “writers block” for a while now but lately I’ve had this overwhelming urge to create something, I just can’t come up with the ideas. There right there though, somethings definitely gonna pop into my head soon. Whether it’ll be something worthwhile or not, I don’t know.

    A burst of creativity  — 1 year ago

    I made a special birthday gift for a friend. She complained about how seldom we hang out together, and also how inactive she’s become. Sooo… I made a game called “Trekking Roulette” for her! :D I printed a bunch of cards with all kinds of ornaments (courtesy of MS Office clipart and the world wide web), and written destinations on them (some we’ve already been to, some yet unexplored). There’s a card with the rules, too, and they basically say something like “choose a destination, call your friend, who promises to get her lazy behind to the chosen destination together with you with a minimum of grumbling”. :)) Hope she likes it!

    yikes  — 1 year ago

    i’ve decided to try scrapbooking, but only because i feel the need to start a travel journal, because of how much traveling i’ve been doing lately. it should bring out some creativity in me, i’d hope.

    Start a painting  — 1 year ago

    My ideal goal would be to paint something that someone would buy. But in order to do so i need to find my creative side again and part of my just doesn’t know where to start.

    Stop overthinking...  — 1 year ago

    and just DO. That’s what I need to work on. I’m too precious with my artwork. It’s actually caused me to NOT work because the task seems insurmountable, yet, I used to create every day in art school. I want to recapture that momentum.

    3-in-1  — 2 years ago

    Actually, I think I’ve found a way to reach 3 goals that are currently on my mind with 1 project – be more creative, motivate myself and create a morning ritual.

    I decided that I would get back on track with my goals and projects in February, but as I’m terribly lazy, I had to get motivated somehow. So I’ve created 28 cards, one for each day in February, with some thoughts to help me overcome my bad habits and hopefully get new, good ones, instead. I haven’t used those “inspirational quotes”, because they usually have the opposite effect on me, but quite specific stuff that I know will work better for me (eg. “get off your lazy behind and just do it and get on with your life” ;)). I couldn’t draw if my life depended on it, but I had some wild fun with my colored pencils on those cards. :D And then I really got in the mood and folded all the cards into little origami fish!

    The plan is to read a random card in the morning and try to keep it in my mind for the rest of the day, and (ideally) change my (bad) behaviour under its influence. Now I just have to make an aquarium for those 28 fish… :D

    paper mache?  — 2 years ago

    My boyfriend saw this stupid paper mache person I had to make in my high school art class and thinks it looks hilarious and that I should make more. haha What the heck?
    I’m almost considering the idea though. At least I could get back to doing something creative, although this certainly wouldn’t have been my first choice. haha
