My Creative Dream

My Creative dream started as:

 "I want to write and make art for a living."

 

I have a new, revised, and much more deep creative dream/goal through the process of playing the "why" game (as I call it). It is:

 "I want to show the world all aspects of life through my writing and art."

 

My list of brainstormed ideas to implement to take steps towards my above dream/goal:

1. Make the art/finish the book

2. Find a way to show the art

3. Find a way to sell the art/publish the book

4. Get my friends on social media to promote my artwork

5. Create a blog/social media for my art and writings

 

I decided that my first idea to work on should be:

Create a blog and/or create a social media account to show my art.

 

Brainstorm list:

1. Find a good social media platform to use

2. Get permission from my Mom (eye roll)

3. Create an account/blog

4. Create a brand identity

5. Take pictures of art/give snippets of writing

6. Create my first post

7. Continue creating posts
