  • The Pros and Cons of Social Media for Artists

    The Pros and Cons of Social Media for Artists

    In my last blog I talked about the value of sketchbooks to an artists practice and also mentioned a 30 day sketchbook challenge that I was co-hosting.  The challenge was created by Insight Creative, so Julia and I were very happy to host this on behalf of the Artist mentoring and coaching company.  Hosting was…

    Artists Sketchbooks

    I’m rarely organised enough to get a post out on the first of the month, let alone a few days earlier but this is my February blog post. I have a rather busy February planned so thought I should get my butt in gear.  Today I am kicking off a 30 day sketchbook challenge and…

    Creative Boost for 2023

    Back in 2021 I completed CVP (Creative Visionary Program). It was one of those courses I’d looked at for a while but never taken the plunge.  In part, my reluctance was that for an online course it has a higher price tag than most. But the main reason was because of the time commitment.  CVP…

    Creative Visionary Programme

    I’m now four weeks into a 3-month online course called Creative Visionary Programme (CVP). And I have to say its unlike any online art programme I’ve been involved in.  Not only is it a huge community, but geographically participants are from all over the globe. My goal was to get some inspiration and learn some…

    100 Days of Creative Play

    In last week’s post I said I was passing on the 100 day project. But having seen so many really inspiring posts I’ve had a change of mind!  I thought, originally, it would be too much commitment. On top of everything else CVP was starting in February. But, having listened to the Art Juice podcast,…

    January GiveAway

    So in last week’s blog I mentioned that one of the things on my 2021 plan was to throw myself into a few more challenges. I kicked this off last week by creating some postcard sized pieces for the #oneofmanypostcards initiative.  #oneofmanypostcards The initiative is the brainchild of talented artist and print maker John Pedder . …
