One of my new goals for the next few months is to find and/or attend an inspiring creativity workshop. I don’t care if it’s about general creativity, or more specialized for oil or watercolor painting–I just want something that will get my juices flowing. I have been feeling stumped in this area for quite some time and it stumps my confidence in my work. Something relatively local is preferable, but I will travel to an awe-inspiring location for the right price.
So if anyone out there in webland has any hints on how to find one, or recommendations for a workshop they have taken, please pass it on. Please comment or email me at kate (at) penguinart (dot) com.
In the meantime I am reading SARK’s book, “Make Your Creative Dreams Real: A Plan for Procrastinators, Perfectionists, Busy People, and People Who Would Really Rather Sleep All Day.”
I *heart* SARK’s handwritten, scribbled and doodled books. This one is a little more structured but I don’t mind. The watercolor-textured inserts with multicolored marker writings make me want to draw like a kid again. SARK is a bit like Sesame Street for the troubled adult mind.
I will put SARK’s next workshop on my list of possibilities.
