Artist's Block

Humaymay July 26th, 2023

Hi everyone 😊 I wanted to see if anyone has any helpful tips for art block. I've been trying to get back into painting and drawing but every time I'm in front of a blank page, I can't bring myself to put anything on it.


Any suggestions would be super helpful ☺️

@Humaymay most the time when I get art lock it feel so demotivating to even try and put pencil to paper. I start most things off in am abstract way whay ever way the pencil moves it will take time to find a shape to spark something but just keep adding or making new ones.

@GwydionRowan thank you so much for the tip. I'll definitely try it☺️ I've never been a big abstract person but if it can help with an art block I'm definitely going to do it

  • I always set a reasonable amount of time because the infinity of time freezes me.
  • I give a random topic/theme. Even better if it is ridiculous. (Potato peel, matted dog hair...)
  • Random area, style, or technique

You can ball up the slips of paper and randomly pick one from the collection.
