I just saw a post on facebook about 'how to stay creative'. Sometimes as artists, that becomes a real problem, sometimes no problem at all. I'm lucky in the sense that I always love to play in creativity but I do need a certain peacefulness to my days in order for creative play to really happen. Having a little trouble with that on and off this summer with the kids home from school, I just have to get in that groove and lock myself out of the real world for a couple of hours each day.
Anyway on the post they listed ways to stay creative such as:
Relax.
Exercise.
Get Rest.
Carry a notebook and camera with you everywhere.
Surround yourself with creative people.
Can you add to that list . . .
