Et tu Muse?

There are, for the most part, clear cut steps for any art project. Most technical processes only really require a cut here, paste there, scribble more, less green, no glitter. Yet, no one really accounts for the infamous creative block. Muses are fickle and fleeting, and I am by no means impervious to their wishy-washy whims. My technical process can be seriously affected when I am under it's curse.

There is, of course, ways to get around it. I generally do not have the luxury of sitting around waiting for my muse to grant me a secret magical concoction of creative juices. Of course there isn't any, I have to work through and find out what will charge my creative batteries again. Doing this usually involves trying to go to my happy place. Funnily enough, my happy place usually involves creating something completely different.

Conveniently enough, I am currently in the midst of my latest block. Though I think my muse is coming back in the form of a tiny black and white fluffy cat.
