Creativity Whispering 1: Make Room for Your Voice

Creativity Whispering is a project that came to life thanks to all of you, and your deep, important questions about finding the space and time for art, inspiration, personal style, and understanding your relationship with the creative process. There were so many questions about how to deal with creative blocks, perfectionism, fear, and negative thoughts, that I was asked during my classes. I started to think about how can I share my experience and give you a hand – because you know – I can relate!

I strongly believe in the power of transformation and our ability to make changes in our life, when we put our intention and energy into it. The changes may be small at first, but they go deep and affect
many aspects of our life. To start the change we need to find out who we are, where we are now and start from there with an open head and heart… and here I come with my “Creativity Whispering” online courses! I’ve planned 4 of them, each one different, happening quarterly and allowing us to work on important aspects of our creative life… but this process goes far deeper than that!

What happens during “Creativity Whispering 1” class?

I’ve named this 9 day-long event taking the quote from one of the stamps I made in the past: “Make Room For Your Voice”- and this message goes straight to the point!
– We are going to focus on the assessment and transformation of our creative spaces and schedules to make them work according to your needs – in easy to follow, fun activities.
– We are going to open for the change in our creative and everyday life, inviting fresh air, ideas and a better understanding of our needs and flow.
– We are going to put ourselves back on the creative path with fresh creative energy, inspiration and pleasant creative rituals and habits.
– We are going to focus on listening to our creative inner voice and following the guidelines we get through it.
– We are going to learn more about our creative selves, our needs, dreams and how to respect them in our life.
– We are going to close the old chapter of our creative life and open a new one, transforming it while creating art and making simple steps, activities and exercises.

How is it all going to happen?

During these 9 days you can expect:
Daily newsletters and posts with activities helping you assess, transform and activate your creative space, time and powers. One step at a time!
Four live meetings where we discuss, chat and support each other through our journey. The power of the group is priceless and our energy multiplies!
One large and two small art projects, created with me during live sessions, helping us to tune to our creative voice, understand our needs and channel our energy to boost our creative practice. Let’s get our fingers dirty together!
Elements of relaxation, positive affirmations, tuning in to our inner voice and honouring our inner wisdom. All of this – in an easy follow the way, suitable for everyone, no matter what your beliefs are. We all speak the same language of art, love, mental health and working on positive changes!

I’ve been an active member of the creative community for years – working full time as an artist, teacher, product designer and trying to give motivation and inspiration to many artistic people all over the world.

I love my job – it is my passion and my source of joy… Yet from time to time I can feel my energy going down, my mood swinging, my creative powers get close to zero and ideas are nowhere to be found. I start questioning myself and my abilities, I get stuck in self-doubt and put so much pressure on my shoulders to carry on performing. I keep going through this storm relying on my professionalism and experience, using my stubbornness as fuel, but there is no flair, no joy. Does it ring any bells for you?

The truth is – we’ve all been there! And the second truth is – even if it is unexpected, annoying or scary – it is not THE END, this is just a very important message from ourselves that we should read and accept: time to stop for a moment, check in on yourself, adjust the sails and recharge!

I’ve been on this roller coaster many times during my career and now, the more experience I have the calmer I am and I can deal with these symptoms with more care, understanding and with smarter techniques and a more relaxed approach. Over the years during my ups and downs, I’ve spent a lot of time thinking things over, trying a good bunch of solutions and experimenting with various ideas. I was learning all that to help myself and to help others and now, my goal is to share my experience and knowledge – so you can take the easier route than me and stay on the creative path with confidence, joy and lightness.

Our goal is to clear the space and time for our creative practice and to boost our energy through valuable, inspiring activities based on my personal experience as a teacher and a certified coach working with Soul Coaching® Method by Denise Linn.

Please note:
No strict list of art supplies needed – this workshop is NOT technique and project orientated, however during creative sessions I’m going to give you my usual portion of technical tips and tricks and you will be able to learn about art products as well!

The Workshop is stretched over 9 days

The Workshop is stretched over 9 days and from now on it is available in the form of multiple daily activities and recordings – Art Dates with creative sessions and spontaneous Live Streams as a bonus.

Signing up for this class means you get lifetime access to all the recordings, activities and materials, and you can repeat the session as many times as you wish!

I honestly can’t wait to launch this project and feel all this exciting, creative energy in the air together with all of you!
I hope to see you in our virtual classroom!
With love
Finn

Finnabair

You might know me as Finnabair, but my real name is Anna Dabrowska-Pekocka, and I’m a mixed-media artist, teacher, coach and product designer.

Transforming and upcycling everyday objects is the cornerstone of my craft; to make this “casual magic” possible for everyone, I develop approachable techniques for all skill levels. Between textures and paint, my love for dimensional artwork shaped my distinctive style. Mix in expressive freedom, awakening a creative spark each person holds inside, and therapeutic, releasing powers of art, and you’ll have a picture of my core values.

What had started as a hobby, in 2011 transformed into teaching in-person mixed media classes with immediate success. In 2013, I established a long-term relationship with one of the top craft suppliers worldwide, Prima Marketing; since then, I have counted myself among the most active and best-known product designers in the mixed-media world. The products I come up withstand out thanks to their distinctive style, which is unique to my brand, and blur the line between craft supplies, home décor, and fine art.

After over ten years on the market, I’m one of the most recognizable and experienced professional teachers in my field. My classes are in great demand, and I continuously strive to deliver the best possible experience and quality to my students. Being able to say that I successfully turned my passion into a full-time job is an incredible feeling.

My mission? To continue this magical, artistic journey, and guide, teach and encourage as many creative souls as I can on their path of self-discovery.
Art is always the Answer.

What Others Have Said

Anna the giver
By: miyakhabbaz

I absolutely advice everyone to take this course and to join her patreons... she always gives us more than she takes and her generosity of giving in art is unlimited .... since I started mixed media 6 years ago and she is my main inspiration and the one who I have learnt and still learn the most from. She makes everything simple, she explains every step very well, she always offers new technique and most importantly she opens our creativity when we feel blocked. Watching her creating and explaining her steps gives me such a pleasure and always push me to do more... I never get enough from her classes, she always have something new and important to share. She is a beautiful soul and a great artist.

Taking a class with Anna is extremely educating. She makes it look easy and uncomplicated, and she shares all her techniques to make you feel comfortable using any product.

Expand your artistic vision!
By: bsavagehere

I started watching videos created by Anna Finnabair Dąbrowska about eight months ago and I joined her Patreon group four months later! Anna is extremely creative and very generously shares her knowledge and talent. She has inspired me to step outside of my usual routine and to use a variety of mediums and textures. Whether you're just getting started in mixed media or a seasoned artist looking to boost your creative form, Anna can help you!

An amazing teacher
By: pbhum

Anna aka Finnabair is the most amazing teacher I have taken classes with. Even if you don't understand English, the way she explain things made it understandable for everyone. She is very clear in her explanations. She is always there if you need advice, to reassure you, to help you. If you have to take one class in your life, it would be with Anna.

Grateful
By: jodinjaz

I am so happy, excited, over the moon & very grateful that I am able to take this class. It was many years ago that I first found Finnabair Mixed Media products through Prima. I found her Art so beautiful and inspiring. I would see that others actually went to a class she taught and search to see if I could find one. At the time it wasn’t possible for me, I am disabled and live on a very limited budget. So I have followed along with her creations online for inspiration. Recently I was able to join her on Patreon and get some of my favorites from my wishlist. I use art as therapy for my severe chronic pain. I love Anna’s beginner classes because she taught me how little of many of the products I need to use, how to use them and what to start with. I am grateful because I have had to go without creating for years due to illness, money, even homelessness. When you have no choice but to go without you really appreciate the things you love. I have watched many YouTube technique classes of hers and now can’t wait for the Creative Whispers inspiration classes. Her teaching style is wonderful for all levels. I can’t wait to see what I learn next from Anna!!
