Thanks Lynne. I think I can try that approach again, now that the old cat cant jump on the counters anymore. I will bring a small watercolor kit to the kitchen.
What a lovely list of ideas, thank you. When my kids were little I was so desperate to paint that I hung a canvasses on the kitchen wall. I lost count of how many abstracts I painted while the potatos were boiling.
Some really good tips here that I will start incorporating!
I have a real bad issue with managing expectations sometimes. I often find myself responding to messages and emails during time carved out for myself to work on something… time passes and nothing has been done but new conversations have started 🙄

Love these ideas!

Why did this one make me think of Bob Ross? A happy little accident and the chance to make something unique and beautiful!
What a lovely list! Definitely cleaning up at the end of the day should be one of my new habits. ☺️
So glad you are finding them helpful! Let me know which ones you try!
I love the ideas in #7. This is truly a help.
You are an inspiration. And I want one if your paintings! How can I obtain one?

I came back to my post for the ten minute writing prompts and realized the link is wrong. Here are some ten minute writing prompts. https://blog.ed.ted.com/2015/11/17/21-fun-things-to-write-about-in-10-minutes-or-less/
I also fixed it in the body of the post.
I love these ideas, thanks Jo! My favorites are to try something new and to spend less time choosing. I will hold those front of mind.
Fantastic!
Good ideas, all. Some had not occurred to me before, so thanks. I will try some new things. 🐰
Thank you for this 😊
Great suggestions
