Creative Limitations Challenge: 7 Days of Curious Art-Making

By the end of this course, you will be able to use creative limitations as a tool to spark ideas, build momentum, and reconnect with your natural artistic curiosity. In Creative Limitations Challenge: 7 Days of Curious Art-Making, Gemma the Pen guides you through a playful, structured reset—one that proves that moving forward creatively often starts with pulling back. Across seven days, you’ll explore focused prompts that limit colour, tools, size, senses, marks, time, and space. These simple constraints help quiet overwhelm, encourage experimentation, and reveal new ways of seeing and making. By the end of this course, you will be able to approach art with greater confidence, curiosity, and flexibility, while developing a deeper understanding of your own creative preferences. This course is ideal for beginners looking to build confidence, as well as experienced artists who feel stuck or want to refresh their process. No prior experience is required—just a willingness to play. To be successful, you should have basic materials (even just pen and paper) and an openness to explore without overthinking.
