Start Where You Are

In today’s episode, we’re starting simple—right where you are, with what you already have. No fancy tools, no big ideas—just scraps, a glue stick, and your curiosity.

I’ll walk you through a few strategies to loosen up, show you a quick collage demo, and leave you with a reflective prompt to carry into your own practice this week.

Concept: You don’t need to wait for perfect conditions or inspiration—your scraps, limits, and time constraints are enough to begin.

Strategies:

Use scraps or leftover materials from past work.

Choose a limited color palette (3 colors max).

Work small: create a piece no larger than a postcard.

Reflection Prompt: What did you learn by using what was already in front of you?
