Here Are 3 Creative Female Leaders To Inspire Your Weekend.

Hi, Creative Friends,

It’s women’s history month and Monday was International Women’s Day!

Let’s celebrate 3 phenomenal creative women this week that inspire and help stir a creative habit.

For this week, here are 3 women, and a few more, that inspire creative thinking:

  1. Trying to get started on a creative journey? Try this book “The Creative Habit: Learn It And Use It For Life” by Twyla Tharp. It is a great resource for digging deep to find work that is magically meaningful. For everyone out there asking “Who is Twyla Tharp?” she is an American creative artist and choreographer who has created stunning Broadway productions such as “The Lion King” and “Moving Out.” However, it is her genius and understanding of the creative process that makes her a great guide into making ideas come to life.

  2. I mentioned it last week but if you haven’t you, should read all about Christina Tosi here at Eater. Then buy her Cookbook “Milk Bar: Kids Only: A Cookbook.” With St. Patrick’s Day right around the corner, the “Pot of Gold” shake recipe is a great way to bring happiness to kids of all ages. Also, following Deb Perleman on Smitten Kitchen is always a good idea to keep the creativity flowing out of the kitchen. I’m looking forward to trying her Irish Soda Bread Scones this weekend and hoping her baking tips can make my Apricot Irish Soda Bread Muffin recipe even better.

  3. If connecting with a mystery this weekend sounds fun, try the documentary “Finding Vivian Maier” about Vivian Maier, a street photographer from the 1950-1990s. It’s a film brimming with question marks, drama and beautiful photographs. If you would rather just look at Vivian’s amazing photographic prowess, the book “Vivian Maier: Street Photographer” is full of inspiration.

Drop me a message and let me know what you are working on or a woman that inspires you.

Here are 3 Creative Things To Freshen Up Your Weekend Happiness.

Hi, Creative Friends,

If you are a bit like me, you might find Spring is a great time to dust things off.

The Create & Change newsletter has a fresh new look to inspire creative content that is more accessible, consistent, and fun!

This newsletter should pop up in your inbox every Friday and will contain 3 suggestions to inspire your creativity. Future newsletters might include, books, other artists, supplies, recipe ideas, thoughts of the day, or just about anything that will help you make a habit of being creative.

For this week, here are 3 ideas to inspire creativity:

  1. Are your kids still home? Is winter still keeping you inside? Try this book for ideas on how to make and do “Art Workshop For Children.” By Barbara Rucci. It’s a lovely book chocked full of easy activities to get your creative juices going. Combine the book with OOLY Lil’l Pods Watercolor and Arteza Watercolor paper for kids of all ages.

  2. Have heard of Milk Bar? If you haven’t you, should read all about Christina Tosi here at Eater. Then buy her Cookbook “Milk Bar: Kids Only: A Cookbook.” With St. Patrick’s Day right around the corner, the “Pot of Gold” shake recipe will be a great way to bring happiness to kids of all ages.

  3. How is your home office looking these days? Wouldn’t be cool if you purchased art from female artists for Women’s History Month and hung them in your office? There are a ton of amazing female artists out there. You can find them on INPRNT like this abstract piece called “Fenced In Ambition.” by yours truly. You can purchase “Fenced In Ambition” here at INPRNT .

Drop me a message and let me know how you like the new content or what you are working on.
