Creative crisis (also known as creative burnout) occurs both among experienced professionals and those who are just starting out on their journey. Many artists have experienced the following situation: the artist does not draw, does not want to draw, then you reproach yourself for not drawing, then you feel depressed, after which you want to draw even less. And so on in a vicious circle. This article provides some tips on how you can overcome writer's block.— Keep your workspace ready. If you are an artist who draws on paper/canvas, then sharpen your pencils, prepare your paints and brushes. Don't leave time for procrastination, keep your tools within reach. If it ever happened that inspiration caught you on the subway, on a minibus, or at work, then carry a sketchbook with you. — Learn to draw at the same time. We are driven by habits, and the easiest way to create a habit is to start doing something every day at the same time. If you draw at the same time, creativity will become as natural as washing your face in the morning. — Often, social networks, notifications, messages, and the desire to scroll through the news feed interfere with catching the desire to draw. These habits ruin your workday. After each such break, it is not only difficult to get back into the working mood, but we may not even have time to do this when a distraction appears again. So try dividing your day into chunks. For example, draw for 2 hours, rest for 30 minutes. For these 2 hours, close social networks, do not pay attention to them, focus only on work. And in your free 30 minutes, do whatever you want, except drawing. — Look for inspiration regularly. For example, go to nature, walk along the embankment, go to an exhibition, watch cartoons. Inspiration can also be found in drawing lessons/tips on, for example, YouTube (but also in books, tutorials). And this does not mean hour-long lectures on anatomy, but short videos of 10-15 minutes with a set of tips and examples. Properly presented material, diluted with humor, can restore the desire to draw and give the desire to try to use the knowledge gained. And even experienced artists can learn new things from others. — If you have a blank sheet of paper in front of you and 0 ideas in your head on what to draw, try looking for challenges and participating in them. Challenges are sets of tasks for a certain period of time (for example, for every day for a month). If a challenge was recently launched by someone on a social network, then there are probably many artists participating in it that you can join. But the most important thing in the challenge is deciding what to draw.— Also, a good solution to what to draw would be to combine several objects or ideas into one. For example, imagine what kind of animal you will get if you combine a fox, a cloud, a lilac and a dragon. And if, for example, you combine the sky with water, you can draw clouds underwater with algae growing on them. What happens if you combine poultry and fish? And if in the given examples we try to convey different moods: sadness, delight, peace, determination, anger? You can even choose several works by other artists and try to combine them into one. - No matter how hackneyed it may sound, what brings some people out of a creative crisis is that they take a pencil, sit down and draw. That is, do not lie on the bed and think about how they would draw, after which they open a social network and forget about worries, namely, they take themselves by the scruff of the neck, sit down and draw, after which the creative process goes on by itself. Much of what is described The article is suitable not only for artists, but also for people of any creative professions. If inspiration does not come to you, then a psychologist can help.
