Q: How do I get out of a creative block?

Do you ever feel like you are creatively ‘stuck’? Or have you felt all your design ideas flitter away when presented with a blank page? Every creative encounters roadblocks on their artistic journey. Our mission at Creative Studio Collective is to guide you through these challenges, helping you rediscover inspiration in your art practice.

Here are a couple of tips to help you when you’re in a creative block:

  • Look for inspiration in different places. Take a walk outside, explore a museum, observe the world around you.
  • Observe other artists. Check out what your peers are doing, talk to them or read interviews.
  • Take a break from your work. Take a break and stretch your creativity in a new way. Maybe it’s sitting at the piano, or playing with clay, or pressing flowers. Step away from the art you normally create and allow yourself to create in a different way with no expectations attached to it.
  • Try something new. Experiment with different mediums, styles, or techniques.
  • Brainstorm and make lists. Think of different ideas and write them down.
  • Keep an inspiration journal. Collect images, quotes, or words that inspire you, if you start this before you get a creative block you will have lots to pull from when it strikes.
  • Read and watch. Explore the works of other artists or watch a movie or documentary.
  • Take a class. Learn something new and challenge yourself.
  • Join an Art Challenge. Joining the community in art challenges, is a great way to create new things & break a creative block or you could just make up your own challenge by using drawing prompts & pull them from a jar to spark new ideas.
  • Get out of your comfort zone. Go and explore new places.
