Creating Solo

Moments Captured

Snapshots from my journey creating solo, one step at a time.

A modern workspace featuring a desktop computer with a bold red wallpaper displaying the phrase 'creativity is a lifestyle'. The desk is organized with a potted plant, books, a keyboard, and a mouse. Nearby, a sleek desk lamp provides additional lighting, and personal items like glasses and a smartphone are neatly placed.
An artistic flat lay featuring an open sketchbook with various creative drawings and inspirational quotes. Surrounding the sketchbook are a palette of watercolor paints, a few brushes, dried flowers, a ball of twine, a few scattered pens, markers, a rubber stamp, and small print photos. The scene exudes a cozy and creative atmosphere, enhanced by the soft texture of a white fabric that partially covers part of the setup.
A person is sitting alone on a rocky mountain peak, gazing over a vast landscape of rolling hills and mountains beneath a hazy sky. The scene conveys solitude and contemplation.
A laptop is displayed with a video editing software open on the screen. The words 'Be Creative.' appear prominently, suggesting a focus on creativity. The background features swirling light patterns in shades of purple, pink, and blue, creating an artistic ambiance.
A person wearing a white shirt is holding a magnifying glass over a creatively decorated journal. The journal is filled with colorful illustrations, doodles, and handwritten text on a table. Nearby, there is a cup of cocoa, a pen, and a small bowl of snacks.
A vibrant sunset paints the sky with a mix of pink, orange, and blue hues. Bare trees stand against the colorful sky, creating a silhouette effect. In the foreground, there is a wide dirt path leading towards a structure with graffiti on its wall. The scene is set in a natural, open landscape.
Three square boxes labeled with herbal tea names lie on a light textured surface. A glass cup filled with tea, containing a tea bag, is placed near the center. Two eucalyptus branches extend into the scene from the edges.
A vibrant mural on the side of a building with geometric patterns and shapes in various bright colors, featuring the text 'CREATIVITY IS IN ALL OF US'. The mural is located at the London Graphic Centre. The background includes a yellow brick wall and other urban elements such as doors and a lamp.

My Journey

Crafting Alone

Sharing the first steps I took to embrace creating on my own, with all the excitement and challenges that came along.

A tidy workspace features a wooden desk with a gray felt mat, a mechanical keyboard, a wireless mouse, and a smartphone. An open notebook with sketches and notes is beside a pen. A brown leather cushion rests on a chair.

Daily Wins

Small victories that keep me motivated every day as I build my solo creative path, one project at a time.

A person is carefully crafting or assembling pieces of jewelry, focusing intently on their work. The atmosphere is calm and appears to be in a workshop or classroom setting with others nearby.

Next Steps

Looking ahead to new ideas and plans that will shape the future of my solo creative adventure.

A sketchbook lies open to a page featuring detailed pencil drawings of two floral designs. The flowers have intricate petals and stems. Beside the sketchbook is a ballpoint pen with a black tip.
