A pile of bad art
I recently encountered an artist online who made a simple point. If you can’t point to your pile of bad art. You are doing it wrong. I felt there was some truth in that.
So I went to my local art supply store. Got some acrylic markers and a big fat permanent marker. A binder of 120 A3 pieces of paper and I went nuts. Within five weeks I made 120 unique pieces of art. Some of them really cool, most of them hideous and a lot of in between. Whenever I finished one I put it up on my wall until my entire apartment was filled with my work. I can honestly say it has filled me with a lot of creative energy and I feel it’s like a little bootcamp for the burned out artist.
