The blank screen/canvas/page/plate/mind is a fearsome thing. Or can be.
Here is a worthwhile suggestion to get those wheels grinding. What do you do to think up, develop & store creative ideas for your art form? Share in the comments section. It is all grist for the business of art.

I’ve recently been working on abstracts – something I have not previously been able to do. (they always turned into landscapes – I could always find a river in there somewhere 🙂 My ‘breakthrough’ was working to a theme. I brainstormed with myself all the words that went with that theme. Then I began making marks on canvases and kept making marks and colour strokes etc until one of the theme words started to emerge. Then I built from there.
