The Grind of the Creative Process
At its heart creativity is a process; a never-ending, invigorating and heart-breaking process. Creativity has many starts, stops, and pivots. This is exactly why we are passionate about it; for ourselves and for others. It is not reserved for only the artist, designer or craftsperson; everyone has the need and ability to be creative in their own unique practice; to fully engage their mind and body in an act of making. In this post I wanted to share my personal view the creative process. I hope anyone that creates can relate to this process, even if it is not exactly their own. I usually go through roughly four stages of development as I am creating. I believe these stages occur in a “macro” sense over the course of a lifetime, and in a “micro” sense throughout a project or even a single day. I cycle through these stages repeatedly, one round building on the last. It becomes the rhythm of my creative process.
