The Gilhula Method

by Wendy Gilhula


The Gilhula Method is a creative framework grounded in intuition, layering, and trust in the process. It is not about following rules or trends. It is about following meaning—often before that meaning is fully formed.


It emerged from years of hands-on work in textile art, writing, and conceptual design. This method honors the quiet space between idea and artifact—the invisible, emotional work that happens while making.



Core Principles:

  • ​Create before you explain. Meaning may surface after the piece is complete. Let it.
  • ​Trust your own visual logic. Not everything needs to be symmetrical or polished. Let imperfection speak.
  • ​Let symbols repeat or evolve across works. Use imagery like messages to yourself and others.
  • ​Allow internal shifts to guide external choices. A change in mood, energy, or season can change the piece—and should.
  • ​You don’t owe visibility to every idea. Some work is for you. Some is for the world. Both matter.



This method is not:

  • ​A formal curriculum
  • ​A how-to manual
  • ​A branding strategy


It is a lens for approaching creative work—especially when the work is personal, intuitive, or hard to define.


This method is not:

• A shortcut to meaning

• A branding strategy

• A performance of depth

• A way to imitate meaning without substance —

a mirror with nothing behind it, and no work beneath it
