Description Came back off my holidays to Zakynthos and felt very devoid of any creativity. Something was missing, that magic spark that gives me the desire to paint or draw. So I trawled Deviant Art looking for inspiration and I decided to speed paint and then refine this one in Photoshop. I don't know if anyone deals in creativity or inspiration but if you do, hit me up because I need a fix right now! My wife and son have just returned to work and school respectively, and I'm feeling the loneliness as I work from home......I miss them not being here......I guess this is inspired by that.......

Thank you! It was just a way of getting back into the swing of things but a little more than a speed painting...

I love the soft colors in this~
I dunno 'bout you, just for me, music, books, and television are all big parts of my inspiration. A certain lyric, character, or world aspect that catches my eye can become its own thing. For music, my fallback is a youtube channel by the name ofย MrEpicOSTs .

Hi, thank you. Yes, certainly music is the main inspiration for me.....FSOL, Orbital, NIN, Aphex Twin, various soundtracks etc....I find the visual image too limiting in that I tend to end up mimicking or copying without meaning to. I've been working to briefs and when you're directed in such a way you have no problems simply because you do as the client requests....but when it comes to personal work, I've been disinterested and have lacked motivation......all artists go through it!

And one day, a little something just pops into your mind. You'll get through the block~! ย
