Keep the Creativity Alive

Some great tips by Pikaland about keeping your artistic creativity going.
Some of my favorites from her (paraphrased):

• Fuel it with something new.
• Get a pattern going.
• Get some organization going.
• Keep lots of sketch/notebooks around for random thoughts.
• Pick something to focus on.
• Practice, practice, practice.

A couple of my own:

• Look at other peoples work to get fresh perspectives and ideas.
• Look at your old work and see how you can improve it now.
• Go for a walk down to the local shops and find something you can improve.

I've been so busy with school that Etsy has fallen by the wayside. Which is kind of terrible since I've actually had more ideas, more sketches/drawings, and more orders.

I have finished several more designs. I will need to post some items tonight.

Right now I'll give a teaser: squid, octipi, starfish.... think ocean!
