Favorite Resources for Inspiration

 Well the first thing that should be noted about this is the fact that inspiration is one of those things that just creeps up on us, no one is ever really sure when it is going to happen or why but it just does. When I look for inspiration and I am not looking for something particular I tend to look to nature and enjoy some of the little pleasures present in our everyday life. Granted this is something that I like to try and do weather I am looking for inspiration or not. When I am looking for something that requires a little more focus then the internet is one of the first places I turn to. I enjoy deviantart.com because of the fact that it is artwork produced by fellow artists. Granted that isn't generally my first location that I check, that honor generally goes to Google image search. Anyone who has used it knows that the image listings are generally top notch. However when all else fails I take a deep breath and step away from the project for an undetermined amount of time and get my mind off of the project and wait for something to strike up again. Now the only problem with this method is that one must be careful due to the fact that most projects tend to have a deadline and this process can take time depending upon the person.
