Start the new financial year creatively

illustrationCara OrdComment

Who says that New Years resolutions need to be in January. Take the opportunity of the financial year refresh to hit one of your goals and become more creative.

This year has been tough and can leave a lot of us feeling drained and uninspired. No matter who you are or what your goals are creativity can help boost you up, create a stronger mental state and even enhance your professional life. Create practice opens opportunities for new skills and new ways of thinking, it is like a reset for your brain, and a mini mental detox. Now is as good as time as any to start a creative journey, learn a new passion and uplift yourself along the way.

I have just released a new class that can help push you forward to whatever your creative goal would be, whether it is learning to draw or doing art in a professional practice. The class is based around the most important tool in any creative practice, and that is (drumroll please…) your sketchbook!

My new class is a 30 day challenge that intends to enhance your art skills by delivering you a unique sketchbook exercise each day for a month. The best part is it is a self run class so you can do it when it suits you, in 30 days, in 15, in 4 months, the time frame doesn’t matter, what matters most is what you get out of your sketchbook practice.

In the course I will teach you 30 ways to utilise your sketchbook to grow your art and enhance your skills. Each of the exercises are tailored to help you with key creative tasks like developing concept and composition, thinking creatively, developing fine motor skills and artistic technique, understanding visualisation and of course learning to have fun with your art.

I won’t say too much more and leave it up to the class to show you the fun and freedom of the sketchbook. Head here if you would like to enhance your creative practice. All I want to say now is I wish you well and hope that the rest of your year is uplifted and creative.

Till next time,
