:: Being Practically Creative - The Social Side of The PCQ ::

I was creative today!

Do you incorporate something creative into most days? Share what you're doing or what you did today. Maybe you'll inspire someone else...

Today I added to a big doodle I started last night, using tips from the doodling discussion here. I really like it! I also worked on some writing.

What did you do?

It was great fun and I can't wait to do another. Next Sunday I'll be doing an all-day course where we'll get into using a dye-resist to draw our design.; ▶ Reply to This

I was very pleased with the result and actually got to use my new graphics tablet (for something other than trying to get it to work). Hoping to try another one today.; ▶ Reply to This

I am doing a visual journal for a new course I'm on 'Art as Therapy'. As first I didn't want to record my thoughts and feelings at all. Well, you know how it goes, two weeks later I have trouble putting the book down at all! I have been drawing (I don't draw), I have been writing down my thoughts (I don't do that either) and I'm not terrified of it anymore. Yay!

Do you remember hearing this one... country and western style I do believe!

Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
When I'm perfect in every way
I can't help but look in the mirror
Coz I get better looking each day!

To know me is to love me
I'm such an incredible 'man'!
Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
But I'm doing the best that I can.

Wishing you lots of luck with your move. I hope everything goes smoothly for you.

I can't imagine being as productive as you. The last month has disappeared in a haze of designer apathy. First my son's unexpected drama in hospital wore me out and then a 2500 word essay completely inhibited my other means of creative expression!

Catch up with you again soon.
