"Its more about enjoying the flowing nature of watercolours, the bold brush strokes you get to play with & the colours that blend without causing frustrations in a sanctuary of mindfulness"
- Tanya J. de Wet
Watercolours are magical tools for creativity
There will be days you won't feel you have any creativity
​
At times we all feel uninspired
you don't need motivation - you need a practice
Maybe you're afraid you'll need too many things
You won't break the bank with these mindful practices
Start where you are - the rest will find you when you feel confident later​
​​​
My favourite brushes are the affordable ones that can get lost in the studio​​ & in the beginning I used printer paper for everything - all we really need is a place for our minds to go to for a short rest
​
That's what mindful creative practices give you
​this practice means - time for yourself
watercolours become easy to work with when we let them do their little magic thing without forcing a result - just staying relaxed & calm
​
colour experiments does the same thing
and if that's where you can start, then starting with colour splashes as a practice is perfect before trying to commit to thigs that feel like more work
Whatever your reason for turning to a quieter mindful practice...
​
your mind will release stuff, begin to flow with ideas & come to you at your table
