Development of creative abilities
Examples and tasks for my students (of any age).
Task 1 "Sunny"
Let's start with the simplest: sun and clouds. Everyone can draw it.
But to draw 10 sunflowers in such a way that each time is different, then you need to fantasize. Draw, fantasize, invent...
You can draw with a simple pencil, pens or felt-tip pens. You can use one color, or make the work multi-colored. There are no limits to creativity!

The main thing is to draw with smooth lines. It is they who transmit the signal to our right hemisphere of the brain development of creative abilities. Straight lines are not prohibited, but smooth lines are preferred. They need to be drawn smoothly, without taking the hand off from the beginning of the line to its last dot (and not with small dashed lines)


Task 2 "Grassland"
Draw a lawn with flowers using spirals and other smooth lines (circles, semicircles, ovals, waves...)
Spirals are one of the most useful lines for the development of creative abilities, and a person in general. Scientists have proven that our entire universe moves and develops in a spiral. So let's give it to ourselves the right direction.
Remember that spirals that twist clockwise - development, and counterclockwise - destruction. They can also be used. Sometimes, in order to take a step forward, you need to step back, and in order to build something new, you need to destroy the old.



Do not forget to come up with names for your works. That too development of your imagination.
Now let's test your intuition. Whoever guesses the name of this "lawn" will receive 30% discounts on one of the courses for the development of creative abilities.
At course orders specify your version of the name of this picture.

Task 3 "Spiral flowers"
Inventing your own flowers that did not exist before is probably one of the most interesting tasks from the courses development of creative abilities. And here there are a lot of options:
- you can invent flowers intuitively;
- it is possible to work out (complicate or change or destroy) the forms of existing flowers;
- you can stylize, simplify...




Each option has its own rules. We learn to understand them, use them, combine them, and then break them.


Task 4 "Eruptions"
Cut shapes of different shapes and sizes from colored paper
Make fabulous flowers and various compositions from them. These can be daisies, bells, chrysanthemums or tulips, or they can be unseen flowers of Hope, Tenderness, Beauty, Faith, Love or Harmony.
Come up with names using the names of colors and shades, or your associations and emotions…







Task 5 "Search for ideas"
Search for new forms and new compositions
Intuitive search for forms is an interesting puzzle. And the result is always a gift from the universe, because you never know in advance what this result will be.
Before you start looking for new ideas, try to tune in to the creative process. I call this preparation "Coloring".
Classical music and sounds of nature serve as a good setting for creativity. Find your favorite. And it can be jazz and Ukrainian songs or mantras. What you like.
Enjoy and draw. Start simple. Simple lines and shapes... But all with LOVE!!!




Task 6 "Smoothness of lines"
Smooth lines help develop the right hemisphere of the brain, which is responsible for all creative processes and the development of a person's creative abilities. They should be drawn smoothly, without tearing the pencil from the beginning to the end of the line. And circles and semicircles, and ovals, and simple waves are suitable here.







Task 7 "Coloring book"
or finding your own crippled baby
Singers must sing before a performance, musicians must adjust their instrument, and an artist, in my opinion, also needs adjustments.
Those who are engaged in icon painting know that prayer is needed before writing an icon. A connection with God is necessary.
But each work, each line carries its own information and influence both on the person who draws and on those who then look at the drawing.
Therefore, it is mandatory to tune in to Love, Kindness, and Harmony so that your creativity has a positive impact.
There are standard prayers, as if the beaten path, but, in my opinion, it is not necessary. The main thing is that the prayer comes from the heart. Express sincere words of thanks and faith in God's support. Personally, I am sure that the Creator carefully follows the development of everyone and there is always something to say "Thank you" or "Thank you".






Task 8 "Search for forms"
Invent your own bird. Let it be imperfect and even a little funny. The main thing is that it is yours, your own. I suggest you view my collection of “Funny and Funny” birds on the gallery page here…

Task 9 "Moon with stars"
How different stars can be: in shape, color, and mood. Try to put a drop of your love in each star. And then it will definitely shine inside you with a magical glow. Each drawing is a small story.
Make up your own stories: write them down, draw them, rhyme them... In each of us lives a Creator who loves to create.







Task 10 “Two Souls”
Do you know what your Soul wants? Maybe draw today? I suggest you fantasize and try to feel and draw your soul. Try to draw your fantasies with simple lines... Find shapes that you think fit this topic and your characters. And believe me, no matter how you draw - it will be an interesting experience and it is impossible to make a mistake here,..
…When soul meets soul,
then love quietly from heaven
appears and its holiness
He paves the way to the land of wonders.
To a country where there is no fatherhood and betrayal,
where meanness is not allowed on the threshold,
where everyone is their own, and everyone is happy,
from whatever roads he returns.
And no one asks anyone there:
What is love? and is love alive?
Because there is almost no love there,
where the beating of hearts is louder than words.
(Excerpt from a poem) Valentin Severyniuk “When soul meets soul…”)

Two souls

Halves




Kindred spirits

On the strings of your Soul
Task 11 “Starry fantasies”
I suggest you fantasize about unearthly beauty. Forget for a moment everything that is considered beautiful and proportional in your imagination. Try to find beauty in a long neck, or very large eyes, ears...
There are no standards in beauty!
Remove all restrictions! This is the ultimate creativity without borders.
