Inspiration is something I struggle with often. There are times when ideas come naturally, but other times I feel completely stuck. I’ve tried browsing art books, attending exhibitions, and even following creative challenges online, yet the spark doesn’t always last. I’m curious about what others do to find reliable sources of inspiration. Do you prefer external inputs like travel and culture, or do you rely on introspection and personal experiences to generate ideas?

What helped me was working with a mural artist for hire, who showed me how to transform ideas into commissioned artwork. Seeing how an artist interprets a client’s vision opened my eyes to new ways of finding inspiration. It’s not only about personal creativity but also about responding to a theme or request. That process of collaboration can bring unexpected ideas, and sometimes constraints actually make creativity stronger rather than limiting it.
