Feeling unmotivated in your creative practice? Or maybe you’re so overwhelmed by ideas that you don’t know exactly where to put your focus?
A creative process can help. Developing a process is vital for any artist. It helps you think about your work as happening within stages, each one with its own set of intentions. By identifying your process as a series of steps, you’re less likely to get overwhelmed or let your inner critic get the best of you.
In this workshop, we’ll discuss the 5-stages of the creative process and how you can use this framework to move your project forward. If you want to identify your current roadblocks and understand how to work through them, you’ll love this workshop.
