C R E A T I V I T Y C O N S E R V A T I O N
It is far to easy too NOT be as creativity as we want and need to be. Why is this, what, when, where, who, how, why????
The name of this game is conservation. For a week let go of all the elements in your life that DO NOT support your creative spirit directly. This might look like not talking on the phone except about art. No TV, no video or CD-ROM games, no internet unless it directly relates to you as an artist. No newspaper, no...no...no... Get the point. Where can you tighten up your ship? Where are you leaking juice? Where can you draw more in your journal?
It is not about "taking away and no". It is more about having more time and energy to do the things that we love to do. You know, the stuff that feeds our souls. It not as easy as it seems. Give it your best effort, it is only for a week. We all have some pretty heavy habits of who we think we are. This exercise is like changing a river, you do it over time. You will find some interesting things that will emerge with this creativity conservation. Now is the time to begin some of the artthings that you have been waiting to do.
