7 ideas to keep yourself inspired...

1. Find a song you like and then try and find interesting pictures or images that link to that song, it can be as literal, abstract or obscure as you like. Like this.


2. Take a blank page, close your eyes and draw a self portrait. Don't take your pen off the paper, Don't open your eyes and Don't worry about the results.


3. Browse photography websites such as "we heart it" or "beauty in everything" and search for images relating to random keywords.


4. Use internet tools such as Stumble Upon to find websites that are catered to your tastes and interests. Explore them all...


5. Make lists. 10 things you want to do "when you grow up", 5 things to do before you die, 7 books you still have to read, 6 places you want to visit, 9 people who have inspired you...


6. Write a letter. It can be to a friend, a lover, your pets or your future self. Not an email, a real paper letter.


7. Read my blog :)
