Free Your Artist

Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.

– Alfred, Lord Tennyson

Throw away those stale ideas! Welcome the new year and fresh projects.

Snow

Quick, what's your FIRST reaction? Cold? Fluffy? Sitting warm by the fire? Tracery of snow lying on branches? Standing in the stuff waiting for the bus?

Creativity Exercise - November 2005

Exercise 1: Think of the best memory you have of snow and recreate it in your work.

Exercise 2: Think of the worst memory you have of snow and what you learned from it, how it affected your creativity. See if you can turn that memory around into something positive, build something beautiful from it and leave the bad emotions behind.

Snowflake

Different reaction? Why? Make some art incorporating "snowflake."

Affirmation

I take only what I need from my memories and leave the slush behind.
