Thoughts and Ideas
Conversation Starter
What are the conduits to your creative energy? Artists have periods where they feel the creative juices aren't flowing. Some of us despair, and worry we have lost it. Others use the down time to concentrate on academic or technical issues, some know they have the portals. Do you? The mind is working in the background unbeknownst to ourselves connecting experiences that will come forth in the future. But what is it that starts that release? If you could identify the portals that work for you could you bring forth your creativity on demand? Find a fellow artist and explore this subject.
