creativity boot camp – day 1

Welcome at my little corner of CBC! I know that I’m already failing on the scheduled plans, but at least I haven’t given it up yet. Yay!! This is my first submission for the beloved Creativity Boot Camp super-fantastic, super-hard online creativity enhancement traininig by Maegan. I visit her blog regularly, and I can tell you she’s a real artist. :)  During this 2 week-long course she chooses a single random word from the dictionary every day, and we are prompted to be as creative as possible to create a piece of art in a given medium. Obviously mine is photography. What else could it be? The first word is ‘ivory’. I like this color very much, though we don’t have too much of it at home, so it was a really difficult task. I’ve done this. Pretty good feeling!! How do you like it? (Just one remark. Currently I use a LED LCD and the colors are MUCH MUCH nicer here than on a not LED one. I compared these photos with the ones I can see in the office – much better! I definitely recommend it.)

We also have a journal prompt for today, that is to write a letter to myself. A future version of myself who has completed this course and is feeling like she is on her way to achieving all her creative hopes and dreams. Ok this letter sounded a bit difficult for the first sight, and second, third, too. Maegan knows how to get us out easily from our comfort zone. :)  I’m still struggling with the letter, though I have the main thoughts in my mind. We are not allowed to get back to this letter during the course, only at the end. I’m really curious how I’ll be going on tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, etc. if I can meet my expectations at all… or I have too big dreams. We’ll see.

The next upload will hopefully come tomorrow! I’ll check the other contributors’ masterpieces soon. Keeping myself creatively fit can be sometimes really challenging. :)  Is it easier for you?

Hugs,

Lolo
