‘DISCOVERING YOUR CREATIVE SQUEAK’

Tips and tricks to being creative everyday

A TEN WEEK SERIES OF WORKSHOPS DESIGNED

TO TAKE YOU FROM

WISHING THAT YOU WERE CREATIVE,

TO CREATING, PLAYING AND EXPLORING EVERYDAY.

JUST LIKE I DID!



WHAT EXACTLY IS INVOLVED IN 

DISCOVERING YOUR CREATIVE SQUEAK?

Over ten weeks you will learn simple techniques and tips that I used in my creative journey that helped release my artistic potential, stopped my inner critic from sabotaging my dream and helped me figure out what mediums I loved to play with.

I will share with you the journaling techniques I loved that helped me reflect on why I wanted to be creative, why I stopped and how being creative made me feel.

I will teach you the different exercises that I used to unleash my creativity – simple exercises that anyone can do

And I will invite you to have fun, play and explore – smoosh paint, make marks, draw like a kid again.

All of which designed especially to unlock your artistic potential, bring joy and set up a creative practice

ALL IN JUST 5 MINUTES A DAY.

Basically it is everything you need to start being creative today delivered straight to your inbox every week.

Just imagine, this time next year, waking up, excited about what you will create today. That is something to dream about!


what people have said about Discovering their Creative Squeak

“ I loved know what goes on inside the head of an artist I admire!”

“I loved that you shared your own initial fears with us – it made me feel like it wasn’t just me!”

“I LOVED the challenging exercises (even the ones most difficult for me) and I go back ad redo them all the time!”

I just didn’t want it to end. I felt comfortable and I liked feeling that I was sitting with you chatting over my struggles in my art journey. They aren’t solved yet, so DO IT AGAIN! 🙂

I would recommend this to any one who is just beginning their artistic journey, like me.

I think you addressed alot of the emotions that tend to stop an artist from believing in herself.

I also think you gave us enough of a variety of practice pieces to challenge us and also make us feel we are accomplished.


FAQ's?

Q. WHEN DO I GET MY EMAIL?

Every week I will send you your email so it is in your inbox when you wake up on Wednesday morning!

Happy Hump day!

August 1st is our launch date but if you sign up before then, between now and the 1st I will send you weekly emails with your supplies list, more about what you can expect and helping you join the Facebook group.

Q. ARE WE GOING TO DO A PAINTING LIKE YOURS?

Not in this workshop. We may touch on some of my styles and some of my techniques, but this workshop is about exploring different ideas and styles and techniques – figuring out what you love and what you don’t.

Q. WHAT IF I FALL BEHIND?

That’s ok! This is a self-paced, self- accountable workshop. You can work to your timetable.

Q. WHAT IS IN THE WEEKLY EMAILS?

In the emails I send you, you receive a quick over view of the week’s material, a 10 – 15 minute video of me explaining some of the concepts that we are exploring that week, an in-depth pdf which contains that weeks reflection, action and fun exercises and anything else you will need for that weeks workshop

Q. I AM ALREADY CREATIVE EVERYDAY (I PAINT, DRAW ETC) CAN I DO THIS COURSE?

My thoughts are probably not. And not because I don’t want you to join me, I would love you to, but we really do go back to the very beginning, and my worry is that you will be bored. I have other ideas for more advanced/ next level workshops later in the year, and next – If you want to do a workshop with me I would suggest popping on my mailing list so you can be notified of events

Q. HOW LONG CAN I KEEP THE VIDEOS?

Forever if you want!! You can access them whenever you want to via your emails, or on vimeo (with your password)

Q. BUT I HAVEN’T DONE ANYTHING CREATIVE BEFORE?

Awesome! This will be excellent for you a gentle way to explore and invite creativity in you life! Remember this is a beginning of a journey!

Q. WILL WE LEARN TO SPECIFICALLY DRAWING OR PAINTING TECHNIQUES?

While we do cover some of the basics of these mediums and principles, this is not the main focus of this course. If this is something you are interested in please email me, and I can let you know when I do that in the future.

Q. I AM NOT SURE I HAVE TIME…

Yeah I TOTALLY hear you!!

But can you spare five minutes a day or every other day? And 10 – 15 to watch a weekly video?

If your answer is yes then you ABSOLUTELY have time for this course!

 

Q. DOES THIS ACTUALLY MAKE YOU CREATIVE?

Yes and no! 😉 This course will inspire you and give you confidence to be creative everyday, however, I have a saying –

Firstly you have to invite creativity in, but secondly (and most important) you have to ask it to stay.

In other words, it will work if you are open to the process, and consciously make creativity a part of your everyday (which we do cover in the coming weeks!!)

Q. CAN I EMAIL YOU WITH QUESTIONS OR THOUGHTS?

Totally! Please do – I love to hear your stories, and I will personally email you back. However please be aware that I am in Central West NSW Australia, (time difference factors) and have three youngish kids and a husband (life factors) so I may not email you back straight away, but I will email you!

Q. DO I NEED TO BUY EXPENSIVE SUPPLIES?

No! I don’t believe that you have to have the very best of art supplies to make beautiful creations and for this course most of the supplies are things you will find at home.

For the first week you will need an A5 or A4 notebook, a pen and a tube of acrylic paint.

 And if after you have completed the ten weeks you want to splash out and buy more go for it! You will have a much better idea of what you want to play with then!

Q. WHAT IF I DON’T LIKE THE COURSE?

After your first weeks workshop if you have decided that this isn’t for you – no problem. I will refund you your money (minus any small admin fees associated with afterpay or other payment systems.) However after that unfortunately there is no refund.

Q. CAN I PAY IN INSTALLMENTS?

Yes! Choose the afterpay option at the check out page!
