Watching in HD give you extra points! LOL REally! It matters!

Creative exercise:
1- Grab a paper, cardboard, old agenda, horrible book, newspaper... NO excuses in this one! A paper THat´s it.
2- Get around any colors you have! Be creative! Crayons (that is not creative!LOL) markers, pencils, watercolor, paint, eye liner, lips liners, eye shadows, chalk,etc. NO escuses from you... YOu got colors!
3- Put all the colors in line randomizly.
4- Draw something that has their own colors, an animal, vegetables, a person, a pepperoni, a toilet, etc. IT really doesn´t matter!
5- For each line or part of a drawing , you must change your color! Use the color without thinking where it SHOULd go. Just grab a color and draw somthing. Don´t look at the color, just use it!
6- Your brain will be resistant at the beggining. It is that feeling, you are doing a crap drawing? THat is your brain telling you... the lips can´t be GREEN! They mus be red/pink.
Tell your brain you don´t care.. and keep going ..until you reach the I DON´t care stage.
Where you enjoy the art adventure.. the process... because you are doing is an exeercise! Not to sell or to give away.
You don´t care the outcome... you care the process.
7- Congratulations. YOu reach the letting your soul float away stage! This is why artist paint! Because of the FREE feeling to do whatever you want!..whatever you feel!

i would love to hear if you did this CREATIVITY exercise and if you could reach the top level!

HugS... VAL!
And always remember: You don´t need to be a professional artist to be an artist!

shinning positive thoughts!
VAL
