artist's block

I am nearly 9 full months into my 365/photo a day project and I'm stuck. I feel like there is no creativity left to squeeze out of me, and all my photos are boring. I'm over 2 weeks behind on uploading to flickr, mostly because I'm not excited about my work lately. In order to edit and make it a great image, I have to be excited about it.

I'm getting inspired to write, play music, design and even do video projects but I can't seem to find inspiration for my photography. Pushing through this project is tough, but I'm doing it and the end doesn't seem too far away. I can't wait for the day when I can photograph when I want to, and when I'm inspired. My work will be much better for it, I'm sure.

Until then, I'll continue to channel this inspiration into my design. One of my recent assignments was to create a ransom letter in the typical letter cut-out fashion. While working on my ransom letter from Mother Nature, I became inspired to do a series of ransom letters. I think it can be quite an interesting commentary on the art of type.

For now, I'll listen to Simon and Garfunkel in a desperate search for inspiration in the music that I love.
