Happy 2023 friends! I’m thrilled you are enjoying The Photo Diaries and I’ve loved getting all your feedback.
Do you struggle to find ideas? You are not alone! In this episode I provide some ideas about where to seek out inspiration and get your creative juices flowing.
Inspiration is literally all around you, all of the time and we cover:
> Visiting galleries and exhibitions
> Books and magazines
> Photography blogs
> Movies and video
> And why instagram and social media are not likely to motivate you into action
And if you need more incentive, here’s my favourite quote from Austin Kleon’s Steal Like an Artist
“Go make stuff. The manifesto is this: Draw the art you want to see, start the business you want to run, play the music you want to hear, write the books you want to read, build the products you want to use-do the work you want to see done.” - Austin Kleon.
