January is International Creativity Month

Happy January! Here I go again, setting goals for the year, both personal and professional. This year I’m trying something new. Instead of making a list of resolutions that will all be broken by the end of January, I’m picking one word that will guide me throughout the year. My word for 2013 is CREATE.
Did you know that January is International Creativity Month? Perfect timing for me and my word of the year. We all have creative ideas, the trick is to go for it, don’t let the fear of doing something wrong or silly hold you back.
‘If you hear a voice within you say, ‘You cannot paint,’ then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.’ – Vincent Van Gogh
In honor of International Creativity Month, I’ve been trying to do more calligraphy and hand lettering. I’ll post some of my creations here. Stay tuned! What are you doing for International Creativity Month?
