Description No inspiration for weeks. When, by some miracle, an idea comes to me, I find it bad before I have even finished gathering the stocks necessary for its realization. And when I persist, the result is really zero. It looks like the source has dried up.

Souvent j'ai le même sentiment. J'ai le stock, mais ce que je vois sur l'écran ne me plait pas.

Il faut juste prendre le temps.
Se reposer, ou faire d'autre choses.

Ce n'est pas la première fois que ça m'arrive, mais c'est la première fois que ça dure si longtemps

Merci

De rien. Avec le confinement et tout ce qui se passe, c'est à peut prés normal de sentir cela.
On est tous humains et comme artistes, plus émotionnel que d'autre.
Aussi, ne pas avoir le matériel adéquat peux nous freiné.
Je suis certain que dans peut de temps ça reviendra.

Enfin, j'ai réussi à faire (et rapidement) quelque chose de correct. Ca semble revenir. Merci

De rien. Je suis certain que c'est magnifique comme toutes tes petites merveilles.

OMG ... this happens to me more as time goes by.
I end up with a lot of folders of part completed/draft/sketch artworks or stock only ideas as a draft.
I have learned to keep them because I find that sometimes I can return and resurrect what I had started or thought of in the first place.
Jump into yours / others favourites folders for inspiration

: Ca arrive à tout le monde. Ce que je fais dans ces cas-là, c'est me changer les idées (lire, jouer) et ne pas me mettre de pression, ça finit toujours par revenir (le plus dur... c'est de s'en convaincre )

annewipf In reply to tsahel [2020-03-24 00:55:30 +0000 UTC]

Pas facile de se changer les idées lorsqu'on est confiné. Surtout que, vu mes problèmes de santé, il est très strict en ce qui me concerne, c'est même mon mari qui fait les courses. En plus, mon PC est tombé en panne juste avant le confinement, et je suis obligée de partager le vieux pc qui rame pas possible avec mon mari. Bref, je n'ai de goût à rien, envie de rien. J'ai même essayé de me remettre à l'aquarelle, en vain, vraiment pas envie. Mais, bon, je dois être honnête et avouer que ça a commencé bien avant.
Mais merci

Il me suffit en général d'un bon livre pour me changer les idées, mais j'ai conscience que j'ai de la chance à ce niveau-là.

Same. Don't fret a dry period! You don't have to wait for an inspiration to strike you to start working.

Inspiration cannot be challenged. Go for a walk, do something completely different and forget about art for a while, then inspiration will come back all by itself. I've been painting for a good 25 years and I've often felt that way. It's like a wave, sometimes it goes, it comes again, don't worry.

My inspiration has also dried up. It's been almost 4 months

since I've created something. The contest posters I take

from pixabay to have something at least. I feel so useless

Don't give up or be discouraged Ann, this happens all the time, more often than you think.
Sometimes I feel bad because I can't perform as many photomanipulations as I would like, I see that everyone posts as many manips and so fast! I have many photomanipulations started and unfinished by the same as you, but I try not to force myself and continue with something else. The important thing is not to be discouraged.
The only thing you have to do is not force yourself, if you can not finish a photomanipulation or if you do not like its result, leave it for later, start a new one or you can also check that journal where people make collabs, it was a journal from Wesley, I'll leave it here in case you need it.  WIPs for collaborationsOur first project of the year, what is this project?

Some of you may remember that in 2013 there was a really cool event  in the group Photomanip101 , a project that brought together unfinished work from various artists and another artist could choose and ask to finalize this work, resulting in a collaboration. I miss something like that and also miss seeing artists collaborating, so I decide to rescue this concept
Well, do you know what WIP is?

In the clearest way, it is unfinished work.
It would be a work that you started creating but couldn't finish for lack of time or inspiration.
Example: WIP X FINAL RESULT


Let's collaborate?

If you have any unfinished work, upload the image to this folder:  
I hope you're doing well, take care

I understand completely. I can't even get myself to trace old line arts of mine to color digitally. I just tried and could not make myself do it. I'm not sure if I'm dry, burned out or stressed out.
