In early April 2015, I went on a Play Adventure where each day for 30 days I ‘coloured in’ a mandala colouring page (that I had previously created).
Here are all thirty designs that I created out of that one mandala colouring page. I even surprised myself by how many different and unique results I could create out of such a seemingly simple outline.
This Play Adventure was rewarding in so many ways. I introduced more play and fun into my day. I got to express myself creatively. I learnt more about the creative process and what worked for me. It also got me thinking about creative inspiration, taking risks and how ideas can flow. I learnt so much! I captured my learning in the following blogs each week:
Where it all began – Embarking on my own ‘Play Adventure’
Play Adventure Week 1– Creating a creativity habit
Play Adventure Week 2 – How limits can be good for your creativity
Play Adventure Week 3 – Facing your creative fears
Play Adventure Final Week – How to find creative inspiration
Play Adventure Insight – How ideas are like seeds
Play Adventure Insight – The secret to making a creative habit
I hope that my mandalas and insights inspire you to create a Play Adventure of your own.
