Creativity is a lot like pizza.

Thank you paid subscribers!
I feel very fortunate to share with you all - thank you for your support in subscribing! Have you ever thought, “what would it be like to be in Slu’s creativity course?” Well, you’re in luck - as the year goes, I’m looking forward to treating the paid subscription as an extra deep dive to my connections and celebrations to creativity. Think of it as the extended cut with lecture videos, more links, and hopefully more chances to engage as a community. Kinda like being a student in my college course, without the grades.
How do you define Creativity?
This is an essential question I ask of my students (and myself) often.
Here’s a quick video lecture about how I like to view creativity, and how I share it with my students. Grab your journals & enjoy!
What is Creativity - Watch Video
With a few examples of how to increase your connections to your own creativity.
Did I mention that journaling about your creativity is important?
I’m constantly reminding myself also, don’t worry.
Some recent journal celebrations,
Coffee and Make Art date with creative student turned creative friend @anjelika at local Huckleberry Roasters
New month, new journal. I keep two consistent types of visual journals. These Alpha Series Stillman and Birn portrait journals are for daily writing, journaling, and creative play. Picked up at my Denver favorite Meininger Art Supply.
For on the go drawing, I’m a midwest-born through and through Field Notes Expedition waterproof notebooks.
This week we’re giving ourselves permission to journal about our definitions of Creativity?
Think about your favorite definitions from your own creative influences. Journal shapes, colors, lines of what you connect to creativity. Take some time to reflect on how you want to define your creativity and creative practice.
I hope the videos provided at the beginning give you a BTS look at “what would it be like to be in Slu’s creativity course” - that’s the deep dive we’ll be exploring together in the paid subscription.
Let me know, what you’re most interested in connecting with!
