- Hi, I am Rachél Payne, the quirky, dedicated heart behind Art of Collecting Yourself and Creativity Tribe. Welcome to my home away from home. I have decorated the walls of this space with words, ideas, images, and imaginings so that you will be inspired to celebrate your Creative Spirit.

Advocate for Artists
One of the values I uphold is being an advocate for artists. That means honoring their right to express themselves and their right to ownership of the images they create. Keeping that in mind, please honor that my words and images are copyrighted. All rights reserved. © 2010-2012 That said, should you be interested in reposting a blog post or in linking to a post, please feel free to do so with proper credit and links. rae(at)creativitytribe(dot)comMy Creative Connections
I have joined these classes.
Love my Fly Tribe
