Hey guys! I remember submitting a poll a long time ago (back when I still had my premium ahhaaah) asking what kind of tutorial I should make. Surprisingly a tutorial on finding inspiration was the most popular choice, so I decided that my first tutorial should be about exactly that. I'm hoping to make some process tutorials soon though.
I've struggled with art block a lot in the past, especially since I only draw when I don't have homework and that's really rare. It's hard to get back into drawing when you haven't done it in a while. And it's hard to start drawing again when you just finished a major project or a large piece of artwork that took a long time. I hope that this tutorial will help some people. I've just listed a few ways I commonly try and get over art block.
I also said in the tutorial to look up reference images and draw them for practice, so I'm listing a few links for good websites to practice with.
Pixelovely
Posemaniacs
Quickposes
Also, over the years, I've collected very helpful tutorials from everything to quick sketching to coloring gold. CHECK IT OUT HERE
And here's a link to my inspiration tag on tumblr, if you want to check it out as well. It keeps me inspired when I'm out of ideas. CHECK IT OUT HERE
Thanks for reading!

thanks for the tutorial!
for me, most of the time, art block is when i just cant draw right for some reason. I have all these ideas, but suddenly suck at drawing it and I have to revisit tutorials or figure out what I'm doing wrong or something

Ah yeah I feel that way too. And sometimes I have no ideas, but when I draw it turns out really good for some reason? Haha it's really strange how it works.

This is lovely, I think I'm finally gonna start working on hands now. I may or may not have been avoiding drawing them for . . . reasons.

haha I feel the same way! I used to try and come up with poses that avoided drawing hands becasue I sucked at them, but once I got to practicing they're actually pretty fun to draw. I still suck but at least I feel like I'm improving!
