Description
This must be the most useful tutorial I have submitted yet.Results guaranteed.
Hard to pick a category for this considering its... ah... somewhat parodic nature! It was my response to the fact that I've loafed around being unproductive for the past month and a half.
I hope it provides some amusement.
I forgot to say that it was suggested by the lovely ~Eeyore4444 (the queen of art block, or rather, the queen of not posting anything in her gallery. Ever) - I'm sorry hun!
Edit: I can't believe it. I think that writing this may well have cured my art block. That's it, guys! The solution is to take the mickey!

Brilliant! (Even funnier if I hadn't done it myself many times!)

Great observations... And indeed, an empty sheet of paper is not inspiring at all, it's depressing. You'll have to completely cover it with some meaningful image or text, and nothing is done yet!
Fortunately, when the sheet is not so stunningly blank, it goes much easier.

usually reworking things helps me... but today it's not. and seeing most of my art-block-banishing ideas on this, i shall think twice before sitting in the rain, scribbling futile drawing beginnings on numerous pieces of paper.
funny tutorial ^^
