Other People’s ART 🖤🖤🖤
I answered a question in another group just now, and this thought came about…
Thought I’d bring it over here to discuss with all of you today. 🖤
The 💭
When thinking about inspiration, can a single line or word from another piece of art inspire you to create something completely new?
Yes!!!
Finding inspiration in someones art is a wonderful place to start. Honoring something that touched you and stayed with you can spark a whole new idea.
Books, movies, art—I am always thinking about them and looking for ideas, different ways of viewing this world. When I find something that inspires me, I immediately write it down in my notes app or scribble it in a journal, then get back to it later when I have time to write. Sometimes those perspectives vibe from conversations, sometimes published work.
And then…
The endurance that carries you through writing your art can be found by pouring your own lived experiences into the story. Just like Paul Coelho showed us in his book The Alchemist.
Your perspective is unique. Nobody has ever lived your exact life, and by drawing from those hard painful and lived experiences and feelings, we can create strong emotion in our stories.
That emotion becomes relatable for the reader and memorable in your work. 🖤
What are your thoughts???
