Finding Time to Create

Written By Eleaca Young

I have noticed that it is not just me who struggles to find the time to create. There have been many posts on Instagram where artists post about the time struggle. I think we all have this issue including those of us that stay home and create. The business side of a home business is distracting and consuming. I have switched to smaller art journals recently and have found that it really helps. Using a smaller substrate and being able to complete a project in one setting has me coming back for more.

I started making 2” journal signatures and I can actually complete more than one tiny spread in less that 30 minutes. I have a tutorial showing how to make journal signatures here. Just adjust the measurements to 2’X4”.

Creativity has always been a large part of my life. I believe that everyone is a creative, some people just have not discovered their passion yet. My goal is to share the message, “Go Forth and Create!”

Mixed media is my love. I thrive on the freedom of working in any medium I want and combining watercolor, ink, acrylics, fabrics-everything is fair game.

Living in Alaska, I am surrounded by beauty. I find the scenery and the people equally inspiring. the world is endlessly providing inspiration and my mission is to take full advantage. My favorites include color, nature, family, books, people and so much more.
