RE: Fighting Art block With Spring Cleaning

in #art7 years ago (edited)

First time reading about this "Art block" term you bring on this post, but I think I can somehow relate to. My experience is, usually having good and varied ideas but not being able to convey them on the pixelcanvas, then i forget about the "avoid the perfect mindset" principle about art, and instantly get frustrated then I scratch the work or I leave it unfinished, all because it just "doesn't look good", then I just dont do anything. Thats my "block".
Just remembering that principle keeps me on track.
EDIT: Pretty artwork btw.

Well, I recommend writing down your ideas :)
This way when you learn everything, you can always try a good idea again and not lose it. Also avoid deleting works, even if bad as it can come in handy some other time ^^ I've done cool paintovers over my bad sketches.

Hey that's a good idea, I always try to start a quick sketch of what ever comes to my mind, but to write 'em on paper and coming back to them later, that will leave a big list of ideas/material to work around. Creativity is too precious to leave it just forgotten.
