Playlist for Creating by Marissa Deraya Show When I want to create something, which is often, I gather my paint brushes, acrylics, watercolor pallets, canvas…then, I turn on my Spotify to set the creative mood. If you are a creative like me, or just want to create, it can be hard to settle into making something when you have work, to-dos, chores pounding down the door of your thoughts. Music changes the atmosphere of my spaces and takes me into creativity. Here is what’s been on rotation for me lately: Better Than I Used To Be – Mat Kearney Two of my favorites on my list right now are: The song feels important, important because of what’s being created through it. It ends in a raw yelling of “paint the beauty we split!” The anthem part of the song draws a clear line between art and struggle, but there is a deeper meaning to this song that draws me in. The Beauty is Jesus’ love on the cross and I split His beauty with my sin. So, I call on Him to paint the beauty within me as I paint on canvas and page. Awakening – Amanda Lindsey Cook This is my awakening I honestly could get creative anywhere if I have my playlist. From airplanes, to crowded coffee shops, I can escape into my art journals. I am an extreme introvert with the power of intense focus. Chaos could be happening all around me but if I have headphones I can block it all out. Typically you can find me sitting at my kitchen table or in my backyard painting abstractly. Not only are these songs escape for me but they ooze creativity themselves. I feel inspired by them, and I hope you do, too. Get out there and create! Tag @globalpassion and @onmissionwithmarissa in your creative endeavors on Instagram to let us know what you’re working on.
