We’re all Artists
*Reposted from June 22, 2023*
It's quite easy for an artist to say that we're all creative. You reading this may have never picked up a paint brush in the past couple of years, but it doesn't matter in the slightest. You are creative and you can dream anything you want. I'm sure you literally daydream, right? Well, this is a creative process in my belief! Your mind drifts to places beyond reality.
Creative things form from abstract concepts, and processes. Doesn't this sound familiar to the formation of your soul?
It is easy to loose a feeling within you of being in touch with your artist self, thats why its our jobs to dig deep within and get it out. This doesn't have to be via only 2-D art making. There are so many activities that challenges your mind to think in ways it never has before.
Some examples I came up with include... Sculpting, gardening, traveling, gazing at clouds and making shapes of them, creative visualization, dreaming, hair braiding, meditation, baking, music making, cooking, molding, the list goes on and on. The possibilities are endless.
It starts with you acknowledging you have the mere curiosity to see where your mind can take you. Then its accepting its something you want, and lastly committing and fulfilling action to do what will make you more creative.
This is feasible for absolutely anyone, and is by no means rocket science. It just starts with your mind, and it can happen. Just a reminder to be gentle with yourself as this is an ongoing process that can not be done in a days, weeks, or even months time. There's always room for growth and evolution.
I so badly want to help people access whats already inside of them, to help bring it into fruition. This is going to happen more in depth, but for now, I try to inspire people over my small followed art instagram, and blog. As long as it helps one person thats all I care about.
I want you to know that I believe you can use anything you please as an outlet for your expressive artist side to come through. The benefits of this are improved happiness, boosted energy, and the gain of having a new hobby to occupy your free time.
I am making a podcast soon, which will be based around these concepts of art, life, and how the merging of the two can open your world in ways you can only feel within you.
Please leave a comment of one creative hobby you wish to try. It could be one I suggested, or anything else.
I hope you have a peace filled beautiful day.
Thanks,
