Fear is a common barrier that stops people from accessing and expressing their creativity. It can masquerade as busyness or procrastination — and it's the biggest thing that either stops you from starting your creative work or stops you from getting to the place where creativity is free and fun.

This class explores the stages of a creative process and provides a practical framework for developing a healthy mindset around creativity. What's a healthy mindset? It's creativity with an emphasis on fun and self-expression. When creativity starts from a place of self-care, there is no space for guilt or shame.

This is not a "how to draw XYZ" class. This class is about understanding where fear sits in your creative process, and learning techniques for when you need to make the brain shift from tight and controlled, to loose, intuitive and expressive. When you want to get yourself into that place where making art becomes magical.

I’ll be demonstrating these techniques through drawing and painting, but the concepts and tips can apply to any form of creativity. Throughout this class, you’ll learn:

To reflect on your creative process and identify where your fear sits within it
Practical tips for navigating this fear
An easy way to start a drawing
Six techniques to help you shift from tense, controlled work into more playful, expressive work
How to evaluate your drawing session (as opposed to judging your product)

Being able to express yourself quickly and easily through a daily creative practice has many health benefits, and can help you navigate even the hardest things life throws at you. 20 minutes of expressive creative play can lift your entire day — and the joy or relief this brings will spread to those around you.

So if you need:

the right mindset to get started…
an outlet for difficult emotions…
a little help to take risks again, and try new things...

...then this class is for you. I hope you enjoy it!
