#025 How to work with Creative Blocks

Remember that creative blocks are temporary

Can you identify your creative block - how long has it been?

What are some of the things that are  happening in your life right now?

What does you inner critic say?

Does the fear of failure prevent you from getting started?

Who are you afraid of being rejected by?

Are you aware or can you tell when creativity flows through you?

Do you have a creative routine - what is it?

Do you do negative self talk - what do you tell yourself?

How to break those creative blocks

How would approach those blocks if you were a different artist?

Does the blank paper paralyze you - what can you do about it?

Ideas

• Get out and get a new perspective
• Try painting something else
• Do you give yourself permission to explore
• Look for patterns
• Try painting by temperature
• Give yourself a deadline, anything that forces you to be creative
• Think about these times as a gestation time
• Try not to be so serious, have some fun, and write down your ideas.

Do you think you don’t have the time to be creative, how can you create the time?

When are you going to show up?

Dates & times:

Brainstorm - write down ideas no matter how silly or grand it is

Keep it fun - Happy Painting
