Inspiration well running dry? This will help.


We've all been there.

You get a buzz of creative energy, like lightning in your veins.

You go get your art supplies and you sit down to begin drawing.

And as you stare at the blank paper, you realize....

You don't have any ideas.

Nothing. Nada.

Your creative well has run dry.

This used to happen to me all the time. I would get so frustrated with myself and often end up admitting defeat after a few minutes to go watch TV or scroll through social media, dejected.

What do you do when you have no inspiration to begin the drawing process?

How do you make art when you're all out of ideas?

The answer is simpler than you might think.

When you're wanting to make art but the ideas aren't flowing, you can turn to an easy creative practice called intuitive art.

What is intuitive art, you ask?

In a nutshell, intuitive art is stream-of-consciousness creation.

You know how I have been sharing my positive experiences with the Morning Pages technique all these years? Intuitive art is the same basic concept, but with drawing and painting instead than writing.

And tomorrow at 2 p.m. you can join me for a live class and demonstration -- all for free!

And if you find yourself wanting to learn more about this freestyle creative exercise, then you'll love my class on Foxsy -- Intuitive Art: Loosen Up & Break Creative Block.

I not only show you how the practice works and how to incorporate it into your art habits; I even share 13 fantastic tips for filling up your sketchbook pages quickly with beautiful art.

This intuitive art course is perfect whether you're just starting your creative journey or you've been making art professionally for years -- the technique is more about getting out of your own head and getting onto the paper.

Overthinking is the enemy of any creator, and this course shows you how to push past that common pitfall and get to the fun part of actually making art.

Making art doesn't have to be hard, Reader. You don't always need to plan an elaborate piece, or have a theme -- or even what materials to use. Sometimes it's as easy as sitting down, picking up whatever pen you have lying around, and making a few messy marks. Just the other day, I was feeling overwhelmed and sat down in a huff at my desk in front of an open sketchbook. I grabbed the sharpie pen that was within reach and started squiggling all over the page without any thought or plan. I...

Hello Reader! I'm coming at you with something new -- a newsletter, to be exact! I've wanted to do a monthly newsletter for years, but I didn't really know where to begin. It wasn't until recently that I saw Peggy's newsletter (of The Pigeon Letters fame) that I was inspired to give it a try. So here we are! I want to use this monthly newsletter to connect with you on a more human-to-human level. You can expect this to be a place where I share all the nonsense that tickles my fancy as well as...

Reader, do you ever have it where you draw one beautiful, perfect eye, but the second one always ends up weird? Or do your characters always end up looking stiff and unnatural? I used to struggle with this all. the. time. My go-to drawing workflow always started with the eyes, then the rest of the face, then the body, one limb at a time. I thought this was THE way to draw people and faces, so I clung to it for years. Flipping through my old sketchbooks, I see it everywhere -- half-done faces...
