A Creative Revolution - learning with Flora Bowley

 
It's been a little while since I've signed up for any new courses (those who know me will know I love a course and before I had children used to be almost continually on some sort of self development!) but this week I started a new course called The Creative Revolution with Flora Bowley.

It's good as an artist to look for new ways to work, and challenge yourself and your creative process. I wanted a course that fed both my soul, and gave me some new techniques to weave into my current way of working. The Creative Revolution felt like a perfect fit, as it brings together all these elements. The course information had intrigued me as had the short video Flora had released on visual riffing, a way to add new input into your work, and move past creative blocks by offering short, quick exercises that could be done easily.


So far we are just one week in and I've been enjoying the heart focused messages which feel close to the messages that I like to get across in my own work. I've been enjoying playing with watercolours, and have been sharing some of the results over on my Facebook and Instagram feeds. Although I bought some watercolours a while back I haven't used them very much so it has been nice allowing them to flow onto the page. I'm looking forwards to seeing what new insight it gives me about how I work and integrating this into my own way of creating beautiful art that I put out into the world.
