Art isn’t limited to the studio—it lives in our everyday moments. The way you arrange flowers, notice autumn leaves, or doodle while on the phone are all forms of creativity.
Try a few of my favourites as autumn and winter approach:
- Arrange a handful of colourful leaves into patterns and take a photo.
- Draw your toes while cosying up this autumn (you’ll laugh—all part of the fun!).
- Invite a friend or child to play a quick drawing game—no pressure, just curiosity. (The Squiggle Foundation).
These tiny creative rituals gently train your mind to stay present and joyful. You’ll start noticing beauty in unexpected places. The more you engage with creativity in small ways, the easier it becomes to access flow and imagination in bigger projects. Take a look at my Autumn Ferns & Fireweed Art here.
Remember, creativity isn’t about output—it’s about aliveness.
