In this class in the “Creative Wilderness Tips” series, you will learn the five main tools to cultivate more confidence on your creative journey, navigate challenges with more acceptance and ease, and find support for your path.
This class is the first in the Creative Wilderness Tips series. I recommend starting here, but feel free to jump into any class in the series and go in the order that makes the most sense for your journey. 
Throughout the entirety of this series, you can expect to learn actionable tips to implement on your path to cultivate more confidence in your creative intuition, overcome the fear of unknowns, build support with a creative community, stay consistent with your practice, and celebrate your successes.
Hi! I'm Liz, your guide and trail buddy out here in the Creative Wilderness. I dove deep into the Creative Wilderness when I started my business, Prints &amp; Plants, in 2017. 
Since starting my business, I have worked as an educator and licensed artist with the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, crafted a mural for an international tech company, created brands and illustrations for multiple businesses, and become a Top Teacher on Skillshare.
It has been a *winding* journey to get to where I am now, and I know it will continue to evolve and shift over time! 
So now, I am so excited to share my field notes from the Creative Wilderness with you in this series in the hopes that it helps you navigate the highs, the lows, and the unknowns of your journey.
