“Talent is a pursued interest. In other words, anything you are willing to practice, you can do.” — Bob Ross

It had become an habit for me to make New Year resolution on the 1st day of January without going through with it. 2021 turned out to be different and I guess the pandemic was the wake-up call I needed. Don’t get me wrong, planning is a strong point for me; I just don’t follow through with anything that has to do with New Year Resolution or so I thought.

I made conscious effort to explore different creative fields and not box myself into one, wore numerous creative hats to figure things out. These led to hours of research, crafting learning syllabus, collating tonnes of valuable resources in the process. One of my goals for 2022 is not be a taker but to give back to fellow creatives and others.

Here is a curated list of websites that provide freebies for creatives irrespective of your specialization.
