What do you do to get motivated? How does your best work come about? Is it from listening to music? From snacking on some grapes? Do you need some time alone in a dark room to meditate until you come up with something?


I personally am extremely motivated by music! I tend to open my photoshop, put on an anime OST playlist and just let things happen. Sometimes I already have a direction or idea, other times I am clueless. I find music helps animate my piece and keep the theme consistent! For example if I am hoping to create something a bit dark and sad then I'll listen to a horror anime OST, if I want something cute to come of my art then I'll listen to something a bit more up beat!

So, what do you do to get your creative juices flowing? :) Share your tips and tricks.
