Creative Thinking is a SKILL!

It needs to be practiced until it becomes a habit.
You can practice these skills and improve your creativity.
At any age!

What is keeping you from making the enamel artwork of your dreams?

Challenge yourself to step outside of your comfort zone.
Become "comfortable with the uncomfortable".

I was once stuck...

  • My focus had been on my "technique" questions; what is the "best way" or "how can I make ...?
  • I felt disconnected from my feelings and inner life.
  • I was not aware of how to intentionally use my experience and memories to tell personal enamel narratives.
  • My self-imposed rules of what was "good or bad" or "right or wrong"  limited my creativity.
  • I didn't know how to step out of my "technique" comfort zone.
  • I did not know my WHY? I believed that my WHAT and HOW were enough. But this left me feeling empty and uninspired.
  • I had tons of doubt. Was I "good enough"?
  • When I changed my questions I changed my life!
