Try these simple yet effective ways to inspire creativity as an artist: *Leave.
This means your house, your studio, your job.
Get out and have experiences.
These can be simple and cheap outings or something more exotic.
*See everything.
Inspiration can be found on the canned food aisle at the grocery store.
(Who am I thinking of?) *Create anything.
It doesn't matter what, as long as you are creating it.
Your materials don't matter, they can be anything you happen to have.
*Don't stop creating.
Even if you tend to work in spurts.
Don't let too much time get between your creations.
*Do something completely different.
Painter? Try sculpting, maybe you'll like that better.
*Try everything.
If sculpting with clay didn't work out, try pasta.
Remember Fusilli Jerry? No? Google it.
*Find your niche.
Once you have found your passion, your creativity will come faster than you can keep up with creating.
*Research.
See what trends are being followed on the web, this can give you ideas for directions your ideas could go.
*Display your creations.
Discover which ones make you say WOW, that's cool, each time you look at it.
*Don't pay other people to do stuff for you that you can do yourself.
This will stutter your creativity if you are broke.
Figure out how to photograph your work in a quality manner.
Build your own website.
Promote yourself.
Like Joe Dirt says - "Keep on keepin' on".
*Respect your passion.
If you have confidence in your work, what others think will matter less.
*Love it.
If you don't love what you are creating, you are creating it for all the wrong reasons.
*Look back.
Congratulate yourself for your accomplishments.
*Visualize.
What more do want to accomplish? Decide what you need to do to get there.
*GO.
