In the future, I really want to be an artist for like band posters or cd's. Well basically band related merchandise. Like designing t-shirts and so on.
I used to be good at art..but now I've lost my skill, and inspiration. Is there anything that can give me inspiration.
Btw, I'm not into clear art styles, more sketchy and maybe cartoon. :)(if drawing) but on computer anything.

You know what? i couldn't draw for 3 or 4 solid weeks, DROVE ME NUTS, till one day BAM i picked up my sketch book and started doodleing. What im saying is that you'll start up again soon, just keep a pad of papaer or a sketch book handy with you AT ALL TIMES!!!! i take mine everywhere with me, yes even in the bathroom. You just never know when you'll have an idea of anything and then it's god like a shooting star. Also i believe coffiee works, it amplifies the creative part of the brain and incresses thinking, don't go drinking 13 coffees in a row cuase that shit's reckless. Adverticeing's a big BIG thing to get into and may i say good for you, never lose that dream no matter what anyone says you know why?
People may laugh at us, mock us, look at us funny but remember this. Without us, there would be no video games, no online games like WoW,Counterstrike, or Ragnarokonline. Without us there's be no 300 movie poster that people would wait hours on, or art books people would pay over 100 dallors for. We are a dieing breed of human beings in whitch none other will or not understand so my friend stand tall, raise your pencil as if your sword and your sketch book as if it were your shield, and you're armor is your spirit to draw again for the battle is long and hard but in the end you will succeed.

Like the other day it was cloudy and cold outside, it was around four p.m. and I just sat on my roof and just let the mood sink in. When I got a hold of it, my creative juices started to flow and I was able to make some good designs and pictures. Well, what I'm trying to say is, keep your eyes open, a quiet sunny day, a busy rainy night or whatever. You can even use you emotions from actual problems in your life. That helps, not only resolve the feeling, but it makes a good design.
