Ready To Say Yes to Your Creativity? Let’s Explore Mark Making!
Can you feel that creative spark inside you trying to come to the surface? It can feel like a nagging desire to create something, anything, but you don’t know where to start and you don’t believe you have what it takes.
I know how easy it can be to crash on the couch and scroll social media or binge-watch your next show.
But, is that satisfying?
Does social media and TV fill you with joy and wonder?
Starting is hard, I know. But, I want to help you get past that right now!
If you’ve struggled with having a creative practice, and let all the excuses get in your way, you’re not alone. Creating a new habit is exciting at first, in fact, 77% of people keep it up for two weeks. But, in two years, only 9% have continued the habit they wanted to change.
That means your creative habit needs to be simple and satisfying.
That’s Why Starting With Mark Making Is Key
Mark making is all about exploration. It’s all about the process.
You don’t have to finish a painting, you don’t have to complete a sketchbook, all you have to do is PLAY!
Have you ever doodled while chatting on the phone? You’ve been mark making.
Have you ever drawn a stick figure? You’ve been mark making.
Have you ever sketched a simple flower? You’ve been mark making.
Have you ever made dots on a page? You’ve been mark making.
You’ve been mark making without even realizing it!
It’s the easiest way to begin a simple creative practice that’s sustainable and fun.
Mark making can be done with a pencil, markers, crayons, paint, brushes, sticks, and more. Pretty much anything you can think of to make a mark on a page can be a mark making tool.
That’s why it’s incredibly relaxing and enjoyable. It’s always something new.
You’re Thinking You Can’t Do It
Taking time for yourself to create seems impossible and guilt overcomes you, so you tell yourself a million reasons why you can’t do it. TOP REASON: I’m not good enough.
Before I started painting, I wanted to try it, but I never felt good enough either. It wasn’t until a friend invited me to try it out with her that I released my fear just enough to do it.
Let me be that friend for you.
I’m inviting you into the creative world through mark making.
