Rustique Art Blog; 31 Days of Before & After

Blessings,

unfocused

Have you ever experienced designers block. I'm sure you have. You have components and materials all around you however the ideas don't seem to be coming to the surface. So you just sit, stare and wonder how you're ever going to create something ever again. It's a dark place to be. So I encourage you, no...I'm going to challenge you to make something. 

Anything.

This is what I told myself last night... "just make something for goodness sakes".

So I did. I challenged myself to pick up some wire and make something.  All that angst brought forth this...

It's about as bland and basic as you can get. Actually that's not true, it could be worse.  At least I could pass it off as minimalist art.  

I'm going to name it "unfocused".

And that is really quite funny when you think about it, because it took me 15 shots to get this photo in focus and it is still blurry. Like my brain...fuzzy. 

Maybe it's the weather.  

Anyone else having issues with focusing?  

What things to you do to kick start your creative genius?
