Creative Warm-up Exercises

This morning I started out my day working on another canvas with the resist alcohol technique from yesterday.

Just a practice session before getting started on other projects. I really enjoy my daily art warm-up exercises because they loosen me up and get the creative juices flowing. I also get to try out different things just for the fun of it.

For years I made endless lists of various art techniques I wanted to try, but never got around to doing them. Then I started trying one new exercise a day and found that surprising things began to happen. Now I am hooked!

Here is a photo of this mornings  warm-up exercise.

You will learn to enjoy the process… and to surrender your need to control the result. You will discover the joy of practicing your creativity. The process, not the product, will become your focus. – Julia Cameron
