Listening to other perspectives and learning something new can be helpful to find inspiration. I like to read books and articles, listen to podcasts, and watch motivational or educational YouTube videos.
Our local library in Elmira has a great section of art related books to browse for ideas and inspiration. If you’re not local, it’s likely that your library or local bookstore has art and hobby sections also. I recently started the Artist’s Way, which I keep hearing good things about. For articles I like to browse the Abundant Artist and Artwork Archive.
Podcasts I’ve enjoyed lately are Brene Brown Unlocking Us, She Means Business Show, and Overdue. I recently found out that TED has a podcast too, so I’m planning on checking out more of those episodes.
My favorite videos are educational ones on Jerry’s Artarama’s facebook page (they have a weekly series called Jerry’s Live) and YouTube videos by Carrie Green of the Female Entrepreneur Association.
