Lack of inspiration

Fri May 22, 2009, 10:33 PM
I havent done any art in a while, I've been lacking inspiration it seems...Although I do have an idea for a photomanipulation piece in the works, I just have had no incline, no drive to actually start it.

For that reason I was wondering if anybody who reads this would let me know what they use to inspire them to create their art? What things help you get in the creative mood?

Thanks

People observe the colours of a day only at its beginnings and ends, but to me it's quite clear that a day merges through a multitude of shades and intonations with each passing moment. A single hour can consist of thousands of colours.

When my inspiration up and flies off to God-Knows-Where-Land, I go for a walk. Or stare at the ceiling and reflect on life and people. Or listen to music: a lot of the things I write/draw are actually inspired my muzaks.

Try to challenge yourself: if you feel you can't write, or draw, put your music-thingy (ipod, mp3, whever) on shuffle. Pic one or two or three, or, etc, songs, take their themes, and just try to create something outta that. :P

Or just steal other ppl's enthusiasm. :D

Hope that helps!

People are like puzzles, sometimes its better to put all the pieces together rather than passing judgement on an unfinished picture.
