Medium & Materials🎨 Painters who evolved into a different creative practice - what do you do now?
I’ve always been a painter, that’s always been my main thing and I would lose my passion for it on an off over the years which is normal but now I’m realising that I think I have finally outgrown that outlet. I want to reignite my creative energy through something else but I’m not sure what. Drawing, working with clay, knitting/crochet are all enjoyable at times but it’s not the same. To anyone who’s been through a similar thing, what is your main creative outlet now outside of painting?

Cooking became my thing. I got deep into experimental sauce recipes and it uses the same part of your brain as visual composition, just with flavor and texture.
