How are the Studio Habits of Mind an essential part of developing our understanding of the creative process? How will we be able to reflect and share as a community of artists in our world? Honestly, there are a number of different ways people spin what the creative process is. My personal breakdown builds off of the essential question --
WHAT DO ARTISTS DO?
IDEAS - We are inspired! We have ideas! We develop our ideas!
PLAN - We plan! We sketch! We research! We develop skills!
MAKE and EXPLORE - We experiment! We try and fail and try again! We problem-find and problem-solve!
REFLECT and SHARE - We take a step back and ponder! We observe! We seek input and connection!
This is all dependent on your personal style of learning, engaging, and growing as an artist. This is not always a linear process. . . and that is OK!
What connections do you see between the Studio Habits of Mind and the Characteristics of an Innovators Mindset?
