Domestika Diary: COVL

The multidisciplinary self-taught artist talks about her process and why creative exploration is so important to her.

Just like there are no limits to a person’s creativity, there are seemingly no limits on the number of mediums available to experiment with. In fact, dabbling in new techniques and trying new tools can be a way of expanding your own skill set and discovering different forms of creative output.

For multidisciplinary artist COVL, whose clients include Nike, Netflix, Instagram, and Cadillac, experimenting with mediums outside her comfort zone is the key to improving her craft.

In this Domestika Diary, she talks about her process, her experience working from home, and how the diversity in her work helps her see and find creative opportunities everywhere she looks.

As a self-taught artist herself, COVL enjoys a sense of freedom in experimenting with new techniques, and says that the excitement of exploration fuels her creative energy. She stresses though that everyone has their own, and equally valid, processes and creative viewpoints — whether that’s dedicating themselves to a single medium or experimenting with different kinds.

“Remember, there is no wrong way to evoke creativity; you simply have to embody it in whichever way you deem necessary and fulfilling,” says COVL.
