Much To Do About Too Much

Have you ever experienced artist block? I think that's what I'm going through right now. I've been hanging out in my studio quite a bit lately hoping that just being surrounded by paint, brushes, paper and canvas will cause me to create something. But instead, all I have to show for the time I've put in is a studio that's significantly more organized.

I'm not lacking in ideas, mind you. No, I have a ton of those. Nor do I lack inspiration. What I seem to lack at the moment is a way to funnel and filter all of this into a single project (obviously, this block applies to my blog posts as well).

The picture featured in this post is from my painting "Escape from Chaos" and it seems to be particularly appropriate today. If you look closely, you'll see the word "move." This is not something I painted intentionally. In fact, this specific piece was created in what was one of the most free-flowing painting experiences I've ever had. Could it be it's trying to tell me something?

If you can relate, what did it take to get you moving again?
