The Creative Sprint PLAYbook is your seven-day studio & sketchbook journey — a guided, theme-based sprint that helps you go from “I have too many ideas” to “I actually finished a mini collection I’m proud of.”
It’s designed to help you show up, focus on one idea at a time, and build a small, meaningful body of work—without overthinking, second-guessing, or trying to force a “perfect outcome.”
It’s the bridge between having lots of ideas floating around…and seeing a clear, tangible direction begin to emerge on the page.
Instead of getting lost in big projects or overthinking your next step, this PLAYbook brings you into a simple rhythm of daily experimentation, color exploration, motif development, and tiny actions that build real momentum.
Each day gives you one focused invitation: a prompt, a creative task, and a reflection to guide your direction. You’ll choose a theme, explore your palette, gather marks and motifs, and finish with a small, expressive collection that reflects your unique visual voice.
The PLAYbook is delivered through a digital content hub + Notion template + short daily email lessons. You’ll have clear pages for each day of the sprint, upload spaces for your artwork, palette boards, a motif bank, and a simple momentum tracker that celebrates every time you show up.
Everything is designed to be lightweight and doable—30 to 45 minutes a day is enough to see real progress. The daily emails gently guide your focus, while the Notion template gives you a visual space to collect your ideas, upload your works-in-progress, and watch your motifs, palettes, and compositions build into a cohesive whole.
You’ll also get “creative collaboration” AI prompts that help you uncover motifs, explore variations, expand your ideas, and see new possibilities. These tiny prompts aren’t about replacing your art — they’re simply tools to help you clarify and remix what’s emerging and spark new directions you can bring back into your sketchbook or Procreate canvas.
By the end of 7 days, you’ll have:
- A theme that feels aligned with your creative voice
- An intentionally explored palette
- A growing motif + mark making library
- 1 hero piece + 1–2 variations
- A visual snapshot you can build on for future collections, products, or workshops
- A clearer sense of your next creative direction
It’s enough structure to keep you focused…and enough freedom to let your process unfold naturally.
It’s the perfect way to begin 2026 with clarity, momentum, and a renewed connection to your studio practice.
