blogging always seems to inspire me... sunsets inspire me. new recipes inspire me. the cooking channel inspires me.
I really don't think about making time to be creative - though that's something that quite a few people have asked me in the past. I know it's important and that inspiration doesn't always strike on its own... but I don't mind that sometimes I don't write anything clever for a month!
this is beautiful, suzanne! i was just saying the other day (to myself) that since for now i work full time in a job that is less than a dream at the moment, i really need to do something at least once a day that i have control over, and makes me feel like i'm doing SOMETHING. and i agree with you, blogging helps me this way!
thats the funny thing to me about being a professional creative (painter, illustrator, sculptor, whatever). i've stopped noticing what counts as the creative part of my day and what counts as just "work" or "business". there's something about having it all melded together that's really nice--everything kind of ends up playing some creative role.
what a beautiful photo! great choice.

what do you usually do to feel inspired?
I must say I find inspiration every day in quite different things. Yes, sometimes I feel like a schizo ;)...
