A creative journey of discovery

A blog about sharing creative ideas

There are various kinds of creativity, from new ideas to blending different existing ideas and creating something new and unique. All have one thing in common, though – through research, discovery, experimentation and learning a new skill or improving on an existing one; you can find a way to express yourself or an idea. The goal of this creative blog is to share what I discover with the intent of helping others find inspiration and maybe learn a few tips and tricks along the way.
