Starting your own challenge, celebrating during a specific month, or even joining in with others during something like inktober aids you in getting better. This week we talk to my friend Dameon Williams. He is an illustrator, UX designer who is someone I look up to. His creative learning practice is something I have been trying to emulate. Dameon makes learning and mastering a new technique or tool look easy. But he has been practicing learning and developing his flexibility with illustration and illustration tools for years. He has tackled the ABC's of February challenge for the past few years. Dameon has come up with unique ways to highlight Black History month by featuring historical figures, inventions, and cultural influences in his daily illustrations and informative posts. This is the perfect time to do this episode as this month we are lifting people, encouraging others, and this week is focused on you. Week 3 is RECHARGE Maybe you are like me and I am so far down on my to-do list I never prioritize myself and sometimes even my own business. This week I am hoping you will commit some time to do some self-care and restorative work on you and giving you what you need this week. Shoot a picture and use the hashtag #loveondesigners this week and let us know how you are taking care of yourself this week. _______________________ Follow Creatives Ignite: Our website: www.creativesignite.com Connect on Instagram @CreativesIgnite & Twitter: @creativesignite Linked In: LinkedIn.com/company/creatives-ignite Creatives Ignite helps solopreneurs by providing workshops, coaching, and a community.
