Goal Setting - Ignite Your Creativity 2026

Whether you’re just beginning your painting journey or you’ve been creating for years, this guide is meant to offer a gentle space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what inspires you.

Perfection isn’t the goal—creativity is. Try to let go of the pressure to create something “perfect” and instead think of each painting as an experiment: a chance to explore, learn, and grow. Mistakes aren’t setbacks; they’re often the doorway to new discoveries.

If you ever feel stuck or discouraged, step back for a moment. Set your painting aside, take a breath, and return to it with fresh eyes. Clarity often comes when we allow ourselves a little distance.

New Year, New Goals

Igniting Your Creative Potential — 2026

A new year often brings a rush of expectations—new goals, new habits, new plans. But creativity doesn’t thrive under pressure. It grows when we give ourselves space to pause, reflect, and listen.

This guide is an invitation to begin 2026 with intention rather than urgency.

Instead of asking, “What should I accomplish?” we’ll start by asking:

• What do I want more of in my creative life?
• What feels supportive right now?
• What am I ready to explore—gently and honestly?



You don’t need to complete this guide all at once. Think of it as a companion you can return to throughout the year—during quiet moments in the studio, at the start of a new project, or whenever you feel the need to realign.
