I'm really curious as to how other people get out of it. I always seem to get inspiration randomly, but after 10mins of sketching... i give up and scrap it. i even wasted a whole sketch book doing that. i would love to hear anyone else's similar problems. or any good methods to overcoming the A-Block. P.S -not doing requests due to obvious reasons @A@-

hmmm... it takes time for me, I just relax and try not to push it and someday I might get an idea that interests me enough to get back into it.

I have an artblock too. I haven't drawn anything for 2 years but, alot of basilers are inspiring me to draw again. Maybe I'll start again

I'm on a a perma-art block. Really. I have no creativity, so I stick something in front of me and I draw it.

Listen to some music. Or get obsessed with a show -- doing that usually leads to a desire to do fanart.

I usually take a long break from drawing and then in a few weeks I come back. Getting inspired by other people works for me too.

-Music helps me imagine -Looking at other people's work helps -Seeing anything random (E.g: Colour themes) also helps too

Everytime I get a comment on my writing, I write more. When the comments dwindle, so does my hope and enthusiasm. :/
