Referring to the commet from Nirethakkatherine:

I know: inspiration is coming from every corner and can sometimes be even overwealming. But in moments of being stuck I often forget that I have my sketchbooks with all the ideas already in it :)

so you guys: where do you get your inspiration when you are stuck?

Thank you for the invitation— I have really been in a slump so I am in need of some inspiration!

Hello again---feeling "stuck" the last week or so this article I discovered has YES--INSPIRED me!

How to Be Inspired by Other Artists Without Copying Them | Artwork ...

I have often wondered--very often wondered--how one develops their own style. A style so unique that others will immediately recognize the piece as one that you created.

The article attached to the link above offers several ways to achieve this!

Hope you find it as interesting as I have.

cheers

we already feared it could've been lost in the mail. but it arrived. a very creative and outstanding contribution to the mailartcall "inspiration" from Gianni.   The next contributor will receive it as a swap...

I thought about inspiration vs. (unintentional) copy-cat-ing yesterday.

I was working with new big black bold markers and drew some cute heads with different kind of ears. (they are mailed out to some IUOMA members) Afterwards I told someone I have the feeling they were not my own idea...more that my brain made me draw something I have seen somewhere some time ago. He confirmed this: he saw similar drawings in streetart in Hamburg a few years ago...

and welcome to the group dear Dee Dee!

today I thought about different kinds of inspiration. (for me) there are lots of different kinds of inspiration.

e.g. the ones that come from the inside (like a feeling or by thinking) and from the outside (impressions etc)....sometimes it is strong and kind of demanding sometimes like a soft little river..sometimes suddenly....

welcome to the group dear Kiki and thank you for your stories Carien and Pam! I loved to read them. Sometimes before I fall asleep I see a lot of pictures and colours in my mind's eye. As soon as I try to capture one of the images it vanishes or changes.
