Read Books that Inspire Your Creative Genius

Just Show Up at Your Studio.

Take Lots of Pictures of Things and Places You Like.

When we see something we like, somehow we feel inspired. Don’t miss the opportunity and take a photo.

It is always better to use your own photos rather than someone else’s for reference. Definitely, you should not rely on magazines images for reference, because they are copyrighted. Also, google image search gives a lot of copyrighted material.

So, nothing is better than taking your own photos, The fact that you have seen it in person and experienced it will add to the value of the image.

When you don’t feel the inspiration coming, go to your art station anyway. Look at your sketchbook; start organizing your materials and tools; read art magazines or art books. Often this will be enough to stimulate your creativity.
