May your creative materials be your guide…

This May what creative materials can you turn to gold? 

Are you passionate about playing with words? Love creating drawings or photography? Shape shifting work within creative communities? Or creating gold in your everyday life through many simple creative moments throughout your day – creating breakfast, sharing stories over coffee or slaying the dragons of your mind to get creative once the truth is clear and the lies are toast?

We know “You can find inspiration in everything*.” a favourite quote of ours from Paul Smith

What materials get you creatively excited?

* ” And if you can’t, keep looking…” Paul Smith
