EtsyFound: First Thoughts

As most creative personages are aware, capturing the essence of an original thought is vital to the genesis of a brilliant idea. Often times those seeking to innovate lay in bed with a computer or notepad nearby just in case that critical first thought of a genius concept comes to them just as they’re counting sheep. Marie Chantal Turgeon is certainly familiar with this practice and has thus manifested it into a somewhat brilliant idea of her own. The Montreal-based artist/blogger’s self-published book First Thoughts: On Life, Blogging and The Creative Process is a compilation of Turgeon’s sketches and spontaneous musings in their purest forms on the subjects of life, creativity, and exploration of the of the arts. The book also contains observations about how blogging can be apart of the creative process. So, if you’re looking to be harness your inspiration, we recommend taking a look at some inspiration in action by picking up a copy of Ms. Turgeon’s book at her emcee Etsy shop, along with some of her illustrations and paintings.
