I am up late this morning and procrastinating about whether or not I should go to my yoga class. I wanted to participate in this List It Tuesday and will decide while I am making my list.
The theme this morning is things I could do in 15 minutes that are creative.
1. Get a pot of homemade soup going on the stove.
2. Sit on the front stoop and sketch the flowers in the front yard.
3. Get a couple of pages gessoed in my art journal in preparation for further creativity.
4. Make backgrounds on a dozen ATC cards.
5. Find pix and words in a magazine to cut out.
6. Carve a new stamp.
7. Go for a short walk and take pix of things to draw at a later time.
8. Doodle.
9. Find and circle words on a page in a book to make a poem.
I am out of time. I have to go get my duds on and brush my teeth and drive 20 minutes to my yoga class. Hopefully I will feel the rush was worth it.
xoxo
My attempt to slay the inner critic and produce art that is fighting to get out.
I like your list. Except for the soup; cooking used to feel like a creative outlet to me but now it's just another chore. Yet every time I mention food on Twitter someone asks for the recipe, so I guess I should acknowledge my thrown-together tasty dinners as a type of creativity!
