Jumpstart your Creativity this weekend!

It’s time to jumpstart your creativity! The Jumpstart Creativity Tour will be in Corvallis this Sunday, July 15. Join us from 7-9pm at the McMenamin’s on Monroe for this FREE artmaking event. You can register here. I’m looking forward to meeting Jess Greene of Seek Your Course and along with more people seeking creativity in my local area. I hope you will join us on Sunday, if you live nearby. And if you don’t, check out the Jumpstart Creativity Tour website to see if the tour is coming to a city near you!

For Paint Party Friday this week, I’ll share the new painting I’m currently layering up. I actually started this one last September, here’s what it looked like then:

It’s been sitting on my easel off and on since then, without any progress. When I finished my last painting I was finally ready to start playing with this one again. Using what I learned with Arriving, I am playing with circles, spirals and stamping to layer the paint. I’m liking it so far, we’ll see where it goes!

    Hi Kat,
    Wish I lived close, I’d stop by for some creative fun:) Speaking of fun, it looks like you’re having some with your painting! I see joy in the exuberant swirls, dribbles, and color.
    Happy creating to you.

    I definitely see a pair of eyes in the upper right of this! Oldish eyes full of wisdom. Can’t wait to see what this becomes.

    This one is coming along nicely, Kat. I love the summery colors and all that motion in your work. This weekend’s event sounds like a lot of fun. My postcards should be arriving any day now 🙂 Happy Paint Party Friday!

    It looks like you’re having a lot of fun with this painting. I like the loose, free quality of it, along with the layers you’re creating.

    Several years ago I was thinking of moving to Corvallis. The painting play looks interesting and gorgeous. Blessings, Janet PPF

    I like all your achievements in green and yellow, the chorreones of painting gives a different texture. Saludos

    What a fun painting! I can’t wait to see how it turns out!

    Paints are one of the ultimate play tools. I believe that when we stop playing we lose our sense of wonder and joy – and become old. SO I love nothing better than play time (just like did in kindergarten!!).

    Fabulous!
    Happy PPF!!
