Teaching the leaf stamping lesson in the "Bloomin' Creativity" series is undeniably one of my favorite experiences. This lesson holds a special place in my heart because it beautifully bridges the gap between art and nature, offering a unique and accessible way for participants to connect with their creative instincts. Leaf stamping, at its core, allows individuals to explore the intricate details and diverse shapes found in nature. It's a lesson that encourages participants to look beyond traditional art tools and discover the artistic potential in the organic patterns of leaves. The simplicity of the technique makes it accessible to artists of all levels, fostering a sense of accomplishment and confidence in their creative abilities. In essence, the leaf stamping lesson epitomizes the spirit of "Bloomin' Creativity" – an invitation to discover the extraordinary in the ordinary, to find the art in the every day, and to celebrate the harmonious collaboration between human imagination and the wonders of the natural world. It's a lesson that embodies the essence of creativity blooming naturally, making it a joy to teach and witness.

If you've recently started following me and we don't know each other already, I thought I'd share a bit about the work I do, why I do it, and the aims and values that drive it. Since 2020 I've been speaking up about why scholars, games/XR+ developers, museum professionals, and other creative teams need to be talking, working, and collaborating with one another. Why? 🎮 🎬More people than ever before are learning about the past, other societies, and art and cultural heritage through video games and other forms of popular entertainment - television, films, etc. . 🌍 Yet, visibility of accurate, authentic information on global histories and visual cultures is still low in games and in digital cultural heritage ⚠️And, problematic stereotypes and misconceptions about minoritised communities are still being perpetuated in the entertainment we consume 📣If this strikes a chord with you, please visit my website for more on how I work with creative teams to make better games and entertainment inspired by global Islamic civilization, art, and history👇🏽 If you’d like to hear more from me, join my free community bridging games/entertainment, GLAM, and the academy.
