I asked someone I admire creatively for advice on creating things, and she said that for her it's like finding things that interest/amaze you, and replicating the feeling it gave you, in a medium you are working in. I liked her answer, what do you think? also I'd really love it if you answered the same question, as you are another person I admire creatively. what is your advice on being creative and creating things? thank you!
it's magic. unfortunately there's no specific way to make it happen. Sometimes when you try to make it happen, that scares it away and it doesn't happen. And sometimes it happens when you least expect it. The problem with that is, i'm sure you'd like to be professional and have the ability to readily make it happen on your own schedule, rather than wait around forever. So in that case, if you're wishing to solve that, i would suggest to just move forward and just create many things, 'anything', and allow it to be 'wrong' on purpose. if you can get up the courage to do that, then that will get you into the game, and then the real magic will find you surprisingly quickly
