Ahhh! This space. #dreamstudio. I have been happily busy teaching such wonderful students but it has meant being out of the studio for a bit…..so I’m posting this amazing space as #creativeinspiration. It stopped me in my tracks!! A beautiful space to draw, sing, write, compose, act, rehearse….create. Amiright? • Found on Pinterest if anyone knows the source.

So when I was just in #toronto for few events I had the pleasure of seeing and enjoying the immense talents of makeup artist and old friend Teena Black. (www.teenablack.com) And I thought what a good reason for a waayyyy #tbt (on a Friday) to this look she did on my mug for the movie Awake (I co-starred and co-wrote😊) ⭐️ She’s an amazing spirit and woman and artist. If you are in TO and need to feel glowing (her trademark in my opinion….she makes you glow) and sassy this is your artist. (Oh and ps this is a photo of a set photo hence a little…..let’s go with moody;)) #fridayintroductions #justbecause • • • • • • #multicreative #actress #singer #illustratorlife #artlife #laactress #stylist #Creativityfound #homeinthestudio #handsandhustle #lacreative #etsysellersofinstagram #etsyshop #eclecticdecor #vintagedecor #creativemommy #showyourwork #illustratedart #mycreativebiz #whatwomencreate #artistmeetsmother #yourcreativeworkspace #discoversomethingnew #makeupartist #canadianmakeupartist #onsetlife

On a bit of a #throwback jaunt with these photos as I file and tidy up my computer. 😉 ⭐️ The fun IG caption would read “looking at the upcoming weekend like…” 😆. 👉The real (still fun but more honest) story: I had *just* had my son here….he was 7 weeks or so old and boy was I balancing so many things…the work , the emotions, missing him, the work (again), the milk I was sending home on the location trucks between takes 😅 wow….phew! Anyhoooooo, it is always a (divine) juggle eh? 🎥 Photo: from a movie I co-wrote and starred in called Awake. We won awards (one from Clint Eastwood!…) Proud. It was quite the experience. #workthrowback #actressmom @mavrickemergingtalent #mavrickemergingtalent • • • #multicreative #actress #singer #artlife #penandink #laactress #photostylist #Creativityfound #homeinthestudio #handsandhustle #lacreative #etsysellersofinstagram #etsyshop #eclecticdecor #vintagedecor #creativemommy #showyourwork #mycreativebiz #whatwomencreate #artistmeetsmother #discoversomethingnew
The illustration that combines so many of my passions……ahhhhhh! gorgeous!!!! I have been with my amazing students/young performers in rehearsal and classes and rehearsals and classes…..so this seemed fitting (and overdue!!) #theaterismychurch • • Credit: “The Soviet Arts Poster”, Penguin Books.

Part 2 from yesterday’s post….well…. now it goes without saying we need to catalogue the beach treasures right? 😉 🤷♀️ 🌙 Moonstones galore in the center of the round art palette and others by color, size, texture….oh and a sneak peek of my water piece…. 💦 🌊 #natureinspiration #creativityeveryday #palettes #creativemoms #beachtreasures #moonstones • • #multicreative #actress #singer #illustratorlife #artlife #penandink #watercolorandink #illustration #laactress #stylist #photostylist #homeinthestudio #handsandhustle #etsysellersofinstagram #etsyshop #eclecticdecor #showyourwork #illustratedart #mycreativebiz #whatwomencreate #artistmeetsmother #yourcreativeworkspace #discoversomethingnew #carveouttimeforart
More small color studies here on my slower vacation mode. I still love my pen and ink but want to experiment out of my comfort zone. This one is called “Topography”. Watercolor and ink. And a repost of a photo from way back at the beginning of this account. The children. Freedom. Peace. Need I say more? 🍃⛰ • • • • • #multicreative #actresa #singer #illustratorlife #artlife #penandink #watercolorandink #illustration #drawing #laactress #stylist #photostylist #eventstylist #Creativityfound #homeinthestudio #handsandhustle #lacreative #etsysellersofinstagram #etsyshop #wallart #creativemommy #showyourwork #blackworknow #artstudy #illustratedart #mycreativebiz #whatwomencreate #artistmeetsmother #yourcreativeworkspace#suttoncreative

Hi 👋 to some lovely new followers! Introduce yourself….would love to meet you! 👉Scroll for #inspiration on this small #artstudy ….those beachside colors and textures. Added some inking (as you saw in my award winning previous “Instagram Story” video😝. ) If you missed it you can still catch the magic 😉 in my highlights under “Art”…..🎨 But seriously loving these colors. And trying out some new ideas. Mainly taking things very slow right now, surrendering a little to a slower summer rhythm and letting things settle after a busy year with kids and life. Feeling many new things to come so stay tuned! 💫👍 • • • •#multicreative #actress #singer #illustratorlife #artlife #penandink #watercolorandink #illustration #drawing #laactress #stylist #photostylist #eventstylist #Creativityfound #homeinthestudio #handsandhustle #lacreative #etsysellersofinstagram #etsyshop #wallart #creativemommy #showyourwork #illustratedart #mycreativebiz #whatwomencreate #artistmeetsmother #yourcreativeworkspace #suttoncreative

Just decided! 😁 I’m going to get my doctorate in creativity. Unofficially. 😉 No school per se 👩🎓 but I want to dig deep. Deeper. After decades (!!) of work as a creative—an actress, singer, artist, teacher — I have for sure been living creatively for a long time—but I want to understand this thing we call “creativity” even more. 💫 Why? Well, I meet two kinds of people. Those who tell me I need to find a “niche” (and have my art on a separate IG account maybe?) since I’m trying to “do too much” in terms of how people will see me OR they say “why label yourself”…you are a “multi creative” and that “IS your ‘niche’”. Just the other day I even saw a huge motivational speaker say that creative people often have many talents and they need to focus on one thing and let the other things just be “for fun”. Hmmmmm. I think they all inform each other. 👉👉What do you think? And please send me BOOKS and any materials about creativity. @elizabeth_gilbert_writer #bigmagic is on the go now. Amazing so far! Any others that are a must read? #phdincreativity #drkrista #livingacreativelife #stepintoyourgreatness • • • • • #multicreative #actress #singer #illustratorlife #artlife #penandink #watercolorandink #laactress #photostylist #Creativityfound #homeinthestudio #handsandhustle #lacreative #etsysellersofinstagram #eclecticdecor #vintagedecor #creativemommy #showyourwork #illustratedart #mycreativebiz #whatwomencreate #artistmeetsmother #yourcreativeworkspace #discoversomethingnew #carveouttimeforart
