Practicing hands in fists this morning. Starting with an attempt at drawing my own fist, pseudo-naturalistically, then “iconifying” it. Work in progress.
🖍
I hope you make time for some creative play today.

185: Jenni Heffernan Brown Is the Quintessential Type A Creative

I’ve got a few announcements before I get to today’s conversation.
First, I wanted to let you know that next week, there won’t be a podcast on Wednesday, because I’m moving to an every-other-week format.
This has been a long time coming, and I’ve been resisting it like crazy, because I’ve been producing a weekly podcast for almost three and a half years now. And pulling back from that production schedule feels like I’m letting someone down.
And the reality is, the more podcasts I produce — the more frequently I publish — the more downloads I get, and the more likely the Creative Sandbox Way™ podcast is to become popular.

Hands! Yikes! Hands are hard! These are an attempt to copy @evalottchen’s drawings of hands—she is SUCH an inspiration to me. If you haven’t yet followed her, run, do now walk to her Instagram feed, and sign up for her totally inspiring newsletter! She is the BOMB!

A Peek Inside My Birthday Celebration
Thank you to everyone who helped me celebrate my birthday on Saturday!
My real birthday, November 5th, I was recovering from jet lag.
It wasn’t that fun.
But I made up for it on Saturday with my Creative Sandbox Community Virtual Playday!
Making art with 20+ kindred spirits? Now THAT’S what I call a birthday celebration!

Today was Creative Sandbox Community Virtual Playday, my birthday celebration edition, and this is what I made. 😊 🖍
20+ participants made art together, shared resources, and cheered each other on. The variety of work created was stunning and inspiring, and I am excited to do it again!
🖍
This is the kind of community we foster inside the Creative Sandbox Community. One of the participants today shared that her gremlins made her think she’s probably not as talented as the members of the Sandbox, but one of the members piped in, “no, no, no—we are supporting each other, including those comparison traps we *all* get caught up in periodically. Of course everyone brings different strengths and is at different points in their creative process/evolution, but it’s more about linking elbows and encouraging each other.”
🖍
I couldn’t have said it better myself. 😊

If you’d like to feel less alone in your creative explorations, link elbows with us. Link in profile, or http://bit.ly/2pPbRDZ
