What are your creative hobbies?
It's important to have at least one hobby that unleashes the creative best inside you.
It's a great outlet for your emotions as well. Emotion can be expressed through various art forms.
You can either write poetry, paint, draw, sculpt...etc. The possibilities are endless.
What do you do as a "creative" hobby?

I would say that my creative hobbies are pretty much found in writing and singing. Through both of these activities, I feel like I can both literally and figuratively express myself--and it feels very fulfilling to do so.
@sereneSunset26 Wonderful! What do you like to write? What are your favorite songs to sing?
@comfortableNight4463
When I do write, I love writing short stories, and in my journal. For singing, I usually opt for my favorites or anything pop. Karaoke in particular is a hobby of mine, and I just love the feeling of getting people engaged. :)
@neatTurtle9621 You can play 3 instruments, that is truly amazing! All the best!
@pioneeringFriend7422 Amazing! I like to write poetry as well! Good luck.
@purplePeach6760 Sounds great! What are the genres of the books? Good luck and sending love.

I'm a big fan of musical theatre! Mostly a Larson and Sondheim fan, but Lin-Manuel Miranda can write quite the song.
@MusicalBug Amazing! What are the best shows you've been to?
The Lion King on Broadway was visually GORGEOUS, and I always recommend Something Rotten!
@MusicalBug I have to check it out. Thanks for the recommendation!
writing is one of the best outlets for me. sometimes that is journaling or writing emotional letters to nobody. If I'm able to focus more, I like to write some form of short story, often a fantasy with monarchies and magic or talking animals
@Psyphire Writing is so therapeutic for me too! Especially journaling.
I like to write when experiencing extreme emotions, which makes me more creative and expressive with my words✨ I also draw 😌
@yellowcloudZzz This is a great outlet for your emotions. Keep going!
Currently, I’m learning more about the Python and JavaScript programming languages. It’s sort of a hobby right now, but the end goal is to help strengthen my knowledge so I can switch career paths in the future.
I have also built and maintained PC Desktops in the past as a hobby, along with playing PC video games.
@BlackberryRaven This is amazing! Good luck to you. Wish you all the best in your career path!
I love to write stories
I tend to write about the things I have always dreamed about and the things I love.
It makes me feel that I’m going places in life even if I’m just standing still.
@7CupsUserPol Writing is amazing! I love to write too, mainly poetry. It's a great outlet for your emotions sometimes
I like SoulCollage, her is a card that I made of a girl writing and with books behind her:
@peacefulpisces This is incredibly beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing it with us.
Thank you so much for your kindness, @comfortableNight4463 It is so peaceful to make SoulCollage cards!

Playing music. Used to compose it too, but that was a lifetime ago.
@OneErased Wonderful! Would you start composing again one day?
@comfortableNight4463
I've thought about it time to time, but I'm a different person than I was back then. I guess we'll see.
@comfortableNight4463 write, draw, love to paint (i'm an artsy gal☺) and bake.
@trouvaille4 Amazing! What do you usually love to draw and bake?
@comfortableNight4463 i love to draw landscapes and people. For baking my all time favourite has got to be cookies
@trouvaille4 Nice! I would love to see your art sometime! What are your favorite type of cookies?
@peacefulpisces Wonderful! Is it okay if I ask what kind of expressive art you love to make?
Poetry is my biggest emotional output, I've written countless poems or thought of them if I don't have pen and paper nearby. They may be dark and sad but have a glimmer of light or hope because I never loose hope. They may be gay and joyous at other times too even.
As for a specific hobby, I work with electronics and circuitry in conjunction with microprocessor and cpu chips to code and control programs that allow me to do anything. Like create a visual doorbell system for a deaf neighbor, home security for a mom and her 2 kids who are struggling. It is a hobby that allows me to bring a little light, a little feeling of safety, happiness into the life of others.
@comfortableNight4463 I love to paint while listening to music. I also like to play the ukulele and the piano :) And I want to get back into photography! I used to do it so much when I was younger.
@CompassionateSophia Amazing! What do you like to paint/ photograph?
