There’s something magical about creating something with my hands. As if I were spinning a life through twisting a thread or making a brushstroke.

Creativity is essential for life. You don’t have to be a professional artist to be creative; a hand-knitted hat, a watercolor sketch, a funny limerick you came up with on the drive home may just be the boost your life needs today. Why? Simply being alive and creating anything contributes to the masterpiece of humanity. I hope that our publications bring you the skills and the inspiration to take creative control. So go make some art!
