These were the last two of a series of about five drawings I developed during high school art class. I wasn't happy with the first, second, or third, which contained different elements. I think the first contained the trunk of a tree. They ended up on the front fly cover and the back fly cover of my high school yearbook, respectively. As I recall, my art teacher put them in the yearbook because he said he was so impressed with the process I used to continually work and re-work my main idea. It was long, slow, slogging.

. it's a combination of the world outside and the world within your mind. It's the ultimate inspiration.

My art is music instead of visual but my inspiration just comes out of daily life and I just have to remember the ideas that come to my head whenever I'm inspired by something because I often forget them!

It's different for everybody, but it's usually how "what's important to the artist" collides with stimuli from the outside world.

Creativity is often spawned from suffering and hardship, unfortunately.

@therighttothink50 It seems that way sometimes. I think awareness of certain things helps for me.

Sometimes artistic/literary inspiration hits me out of the blue.

I used to draw/paint:
Its all over the place.
Sometimes i see stuff that inspires me to do a different version of it, or they contain an idea that i want to apply to my own work .
Sometimes i want to draw ...but only get bits out, so i stop untill it comes back.
(My daugher taught me this idea).
Sometimes i just copy stuff
Sometimes i dream it
Sometimes people ask me to do something for them.
Sometimes its just an inner desire that spills out.
Inspiration can come from lots of places .
