Emancipating Your Thoughts: Unleashing Creativity in Your Artistic Practice
Today, we delve into a topic that lies at the heart of every creative endeavor – how to emancipate your thoughts and set your artistic spirit free. Whether you're a seasoned artist or just starting on your creative journey, breaking free from mental constraints is essential to nurturing your imagination and producing truly remarkable art. My wife gave me a box of cards for the holidays in 2022. I was puzzled because they were creativity cards and I thought, what the heck is this, I don't need them. Well, folks, I was wrong and I will attempt to do a card a week and record an episode about how I am utilizing the card I draw every week if you decide to pick up a deck and do these let me know.
