What is Casual Creativity?Designers work on their computers… a lot. It feels like sometimes they never get to use their hands. Also, some creatives are the only person on their “team” at work or they freelance in a solo space. That can get lonely. The goal of Casual Creativity nights is to let creatives work with their hands, learn new skills, make silly things with no regard to briefs or clients, to create things they can hold and things that make them happy. Of course, it’s completely possible to do all of those things on your own or even with friends. Casual Creativity is a concerted effort to make that space for creatives to make stuff together in a casual way that leads to new conversations and new friendships. This month:We will be bringing it back to the basics. Watercolor basics! After a brief overview of techniques, we'll be painting a sketch drawn by the instructor, Abra Millsaps: Art & Design. If you want to paint your own sketch, please make one ahead of time and bring it! All skill levels welcome. There will be snacks and alcohol available for purchase at Crafts and Drafts NC (who are awesome for hosting us).
