bit.ly/312CmaY There are 3 questions to ask yourself that will move any obstacle to play out of your way. What if you could avoid decision paralysis? Or get past supply hoarding and start using those goodies you've already bought? I've never shared these powerful questions before, anywhere until now.
These 3 questions keep you from ever getting stuck plus enable you to keep creating through any challenge, whether you are new to art or an experienced pro. And that's just the first lesson.
What you'll discover applies to every form of creativity. That means you already have all supplies you need, because you're going to take the principles of play and use them with the supplies you have on hand.
This workshop is about the principles of play. Heck, it can even apply to your life outside of the play.
If you're ready to find out how to let go and play, join me for Art Play Live! Registration closes June 9th bit.ly/312CmaY
This workshop includes 4 live video calls on Zoom where on each I'll share a strategy, show it to you in action, and the have a Q and A session. Limited to 25 people Lifetime access to the classroom with downloadable recordings. Calls on June 10, 17, 24 and July 1st $99
Wondering what Zoom is, how it works, and how it will work on your device- check it out at bit.ly/2VSkuf0
I’m Carolyn Dube - a mixed media art adventurer who takes the intimidation out of supplies so that you can find freedom through creativity. Play with every color of the rainbow, avoid rules whenever possible, and let the little kid inside of you free through art.

Want to play? Want to know specific ways to let go and have fun? Join the fun in my free mixed media workshop Permission to Play https://acolorfuljourney.com/permission-play-free-workshop/
You can find me designing stencils for StencilGirl Products, teaching in person and online workshops and sharing the message of O.O.P.S. here on YouTube and on the blog, aColorfulJourney.com
What does O.O.P.S. stand for? It stands for Outstanding Opportunities Presenting Suddenly.
Those “failures” and “mistakes” that we so harshly criticized ourselves about actually became true gifts as soon as you start saying O.O.P.S. Try saying Oops in an angry tone. It makes it even more silly!
I just can’t take myself seriously when I say Oops which is just what I needed to play. I began to play, to have fun, and to embrace all of my “mistakes”.
