Making Waves, Blocks & Dots

Simple arty activities inspired by Bridget Riley, Paul Klee and Yayoi Kusama.

Hello my creative friends,

First up, thank you all so much for being here, it means the world to me. This week midst being horribly sick with flu, I reached 1000 subscribers here on Creative Spaces Substack. I realise that is super small by Substack standards, but it feels like a big deal to me. The fact that 1000 of you are willing to subscribe to something I’m writing gives me all the feels.

To celebrate reaching 1000 subscribers, for the next few weeks, I’m offering a massive 40% off annual subscription plans. So if you have been pondering if a paid subscription to Creative Spaces, now is a great time to join us. So that’s 1 year of creative ideas, printable activity sheets and art prompts for just $51AUD (Usually $85 AUD).

Redeem the offer by clicking the link below:
