I am so tired of this 2 month long art block. I've done nothing but sit in front of blank canvases and listen to music. Thank god for music. I think I'd die without it. I don't think I realize how important music is to me until its all I have left.
Losing my Abba CD has pissed me off so much. I hadn't transferred all my music to my laptop when i bought it a couple years ago and for some reason never missed the abba until now. now I want it, and cant find it.
I figured out how to get Videos from you tube downloaded in small files for my Zune though so I have some fun music vids and randomness on my zune now! Crispin Glover, the Picard Song, and He-man means the seabus is less boring at 6 am HAHA!
I fucking Love my Zune! Next time I'mma get that 130gig one. its big HAHA!
I'm working on the artist trading card drawing that go in the Daqueran Pre sale comics. I did one today. at least I've drawn that much. UG. I just want to paint. Its so basic.
I remember countless times I've talked people out of their artist blocks. Someone has to rescue me this time...
Fingerpaint. My ultimate weapon against an art block that refuses to be unhinged by music, movies, or looking at inspiring art is fingerpainting. I think the physical act is therapeutic and also allows you to throw restrictions to the wind and just do something completely channeling the body and soul.
ReplyDeleteor yknow just making a mess with paint, which is sometimes good for unblocking art blocks.XD
I hope you get out of it soon! I've had some that long and they were killer. I felt as if I just weren't creative anymore and that I almost had no business doing art if I could get stuck in such a rut.
It'll pass, though, just gotta find the right thing to trigger your mojo.
ooh, i might have to dig around and see if I have any non deadly pigmented paint :B
ReplyDeleteOhh i can use up the old acrylic paint i have since I've stopped using acrylics i can use it just to fuck around with haha!
I'd do encaustics but man i hate being trapped in the kitchen to do it. HAHA!
There are many things I really want to do! the BGS for Conflagration, a sculpture of Abade, and tons of stuff like that. I'm really into markers right now, but man it seems like I'm being forced down a path i dont want to take. It might be a nice path but its still not where i want to go.
I wish there was a life drawing class around here somewhere. Life drawing always saves me XD <3
thanks dove :D
