Welcome back to the Elevate Your Curiosity podcast and epsiode four is all about how to spot trends and build a bigger picture of emerging themes.   So this week we're covering how to spot trends, plus where to find them and how to piece them all together! I wanted to preface this with the face you can’t ignore trends or themes if this is a better word, as we all use creative visuals and what's going on around us to inspire your work. But you don’t have to use all trends - in fact please don’t! Use what works for you and take bits - even if it’s colour, texture or pattern to adapt a theme and create new ideas from a trend.   Today I’ll take you through all the places you can look for inspiration and tips on how best to navigate it all.   You'll also find a free printable of places to get inspired on a previous blog post so head over to the post on staying creatively inspired for your free download.   Sending inspiration your way, and don’t forget to elevate your curiosity today!
