Unleash joyful artistic expression with Liz Constable
Invitation to Play
A Brand New Online Creativity Journey into Spontaneity, Expression, and Artistic Play
What if getting unstuck doesn’t start with a plan… but with a playful invitation?
Not to perform. Not to perfect. But to explore.
To experiment. To surprise yourself.
Whether your mind feels blank, your art feels too much like someone else’s, or you just need a breath of fresh air in your creative life—this course is for you.
Led by the wildly inventive Liz Constable of Book Arts Studios in New Zealand, Invitation to Play is a joyful, live, Zoom-based experience that encourages curiosity over control, expression over expectation, and freedom over formulas.
Liz is a creativity muse.
Let Liz hold your hand as you totally let go of the pressure to make “perfect” art and discover the joy of creative exploration in this playful, process-focused course for creatives. Designed for artists of all levels, Invitation to Play invites you to show up with curiosity, a handful of simple supplies, and a willingness to experiment.
In this LIVE Zoom-based series (don’t worry, you can always watch the recordings and PLAY right along at your convenience), we’ll guide you through creative prompts and intuitive exercises that encourage bold expression and open-ended play—freeing you from expectations about how your art should look. Each session will focus on using five or fewer materials, making it easy to dive in without overthinking or over-preparing.
Can’t make the live Zoom sessions? No worries! We’ve got you covered. The recordings of our sessions will be in a Teachable classroom and waiting for you to enjoy within 24 hours of the live session.
Together, we’ll build a space where freedom, surprise, and imperfection are the heart of the process. Whether you’re feeling creatively stuck or just craving a looser, more expressive way to make, this course will help you reconnect with your art—and yourself.
All you need to do is show up with a few supplies, your sense of humor, and a willingness to play!

Why This Course Is Different
You'll be invited into the creative mindset of a radically different and wildly inventive artist. You’ll start by following along step-by-step. It won’t be long before you begin discovering your own style. Liz will guide, encourage, and challenge you to follow your own curiosity — not someone else's blueprint. This is a space to get weird. Get messy. Get bold. And most importantly — to get you onto the page.
