This week’s creative prompt is Healing. We have all felt pain at certain times in our lives — sometimes physical, sometimes emotional. Create art that celebrates your own personal stories of healing. Be inspired by medicine, nature, faith, or whatever may have helped you during your journey to healing.

peace+joy,

Sorry gang, there will be no new updates for the weeks of June 26 and July 3. My apologies to all!

peace+joy,

This week, let us be inspired by South Korean photographer Yeondoo Jung’s series Wonderland, a collection of amazing photographs in which he brilliantly brings children’s crayon drawings to life. Read more about the process of his series here.

I Want To Be a Singer, 2004, Yeondoo Jung

Be inspired by the profound imaginations that belong to such little beings!

Here are a few options and ideas on how to have fun with this concept:

1. Using your camera and a few clever props, recreate a child’s drawing á la Yeondoo Jung.

2. Choose a child’s drawing to bring to life in the medium and style of your choice (sculpture, paints, collage, et cetera).

3. Or reverse the concept and choose a photograph to recreate in the medium of your choice.
