A Lovely Walk

It's been a bit of a struggle to get inspired to draw lately. Something about working full time as a designer really creates a strain on your usual creativity rubber band. All the ideas that you had to create in a day have been used up, and only when you work those muscles a little harder do more ideas come out. 

I try my very best not to wait for inspiration to strike - it's a waiting game that gets the better of most of us - but it's difficult when you're in a critical state of mind to even begin. 

I'm trying to create simpler, low pressure artworks lately (as above). The pressure of consistent, quality work in the office needs a counter balance of freeing, creative work to keep the passion alive. For me, at least, it keeps the idea floodgates a little more open to oddities.
