Can you explain CREATIVITY?
Creativity. The soul word of Accidental ArtMaker. It’s a loaded word. Most of us feel a slight shudder that goes with the shy voice within that says we aren’t smart / creative / intelligent enough to be creative. But…here’s what this loaded beautiful C word actually means.
Creativity is your ability to feel wonder.
It is your desire, almost an ache, to make sure you exist.
More simply, creativity is an act of love. (Maybe that's why cathedrals, hymns, classical paintings and such are among the finest examples of human creativity…because they are inspired by the love for the divine)
Creativity is focus, skill, and ingenuity. And trust – trust within yourself and the ideas that are coming to you. (Should I add that inlay here? Paint that mould blue?)
Don’t let the word scare you (see Pro-Tip at the end of this email).
Let it give you wings. Let it inspire and excite you.
Let it make you sing and smile.
Let it be the bridge through which you meet yourself!

Creativity is any act of “making”. (Incoming Pro-Tip!)
Bring creativity into everything you do
– how you dress, the coffee you make, the texts you send, the work you do, the food you cook. Start by nourishing your creative side in these places and soon, you’ll not be afraid of it anymore.

To being eternally, faithfully, and unapologetically Creative,
