In many ways, Marion Deuchars is the ultimate poster child for the Common Creative. A successful illustrator and author and illustrator of her own books, she also has a powerful creative philosophy.

Key elements of her creative formula are embracing deadlines (even if they’re self-imposed) curiosity, observation and playfulness. Faced with the overwhelming amount of material that’s now available on-line, Marion emphasizes the value of creating for oneself rather than for others, highlighting the meditative benefits of engaging in creative activities. She also explores the use of non-conventional materials in art-making, encouraging listeners to embrace their creativity without fear of judgment. (Listen in and you’ll never see a pebble in the same way again!)

Marion Deuchars, a Scottish illustrator and author, is celebrated for her award-winning books that inspire creativity and imagination in both children and adults. Her latest book, Make Every Day Creative, encourages adults to experiment with various art techniques and materials, including painting, drawing, and collage.
