The Quick Creative: 10-Minute Artistic Expressions to Try

Tuesday, November 05, 2019

By Zoe Eisenberg Most of us have busy schedules, but if you're longing for something creative in your life and think you don't have time, consider these creative quickies.

10-minute sketches. This exercise is frequently used by those trying to brush up their drawing chops. Choose a subject, set a timer and sketch away.

Freewrite. Whether you want to journal or create fictional prose, sit down at your laptop or pick up your pen and writer whatever--literally, whatever--pops into your head to complete this 10-minute "stream of consciousness" exercise.

Haikus. Poets, rejoice. A short form of japanese poetry, haikus can be quick to write, and extremely satisfying once you've mastered the formula. Start a haiku journal and add it into your morning or evening routine.

Collage. You don't need to write or draw to be creative. Start a collage with your own photos or magazine clippings, and work on it for 10 minutes a day.

Puzzles. Puzzles are a great creative activity. Reserve a table or corner of floor in your home to house a puzzle, and commit yourself to 10 minutes every day.
