Being more you

Creativity is…being more you

This week we’re excited to introduce the newest member of our team – Qoy Lawal!

“Hello beautiful people! My name is Qoy and I am the new Campaigns and Communications Manager at 64 Million Artists. My favourite way to get creative is to try something new, I’m always up for an experience or activity that I have never tried before. This helps me accept that being bad at something is a very normal part of learning and life.”

Do

Listen to the challenge below

Create or design an outfit using your favourite colour.

You could dress up in clothes, materials or objects that are your favourite colour to build your outfit. Make an accessory from a pink straw, if pink is your chosen colour or fashion a green leaf for a hat, if green is your favourite. You could illustrate your dream outfit.

What makes this outfit ‘you’?

Think

Hopefully you like your outfit or at the very least it made you smile.

Now, think of how you can make other parts of your life, work and expression ‘more you’ and how that would make you feel. Empowered, nervous, happy or content?

Maybe you can learn phrases in a language that means a lot to you, decorate your desk with your favourite collectibles or include all your favourite desserts in your lunch today.
