Wake up your creativity!
Take a piece of paper, something to write on, and draw a few lines/circles/squiggles. Then more and more, and so on...
Let your imagination run wild.
You can create something beautiful out of nothing.
THINK OUT OF THE BOX.
A powerful skill. Recipe? Get a couple of "regular and rational" attributes of something (a problem, question, thing, thought, etc.) and add a bit of abstract/thing unrelated to the topic.

This was my first trial with doodling in years. Done during the COVID lockdown, I was feeling lonely and anxious, and had only a piece of paper and one marker at hand. I smoked a joint and started drawing. I'm particularly proud of this one because it was completely intuitive and free-style, and it made me confident enough to keep doodling afterwards.
When there are 2 voices insiders you. The first one wants you to go too hell, a Place you have know for so long and the other who wants you to Find the light and look for the good in life.
Sunrise looks spectacular in the nature; sunrise looks spectacular in the art.... sunrise looks spectacular in our dreams...because it really is spectacular!
I’m fascinated in how something may make you feel. For instance, I’m deeply moved by images of outer space from the Hubble space telescope, but I do not try to recreate those photographs in my work. What does not exist in those photos, is how they may make us feel. This is why you won’t see any “realism” in my art. When we send astronauts to space, they can discuss factually what is happening, but what truly moves human beings is when astronauts describe how they felt while they were there. So, I choose to express how I feel, as opposed to illustrate what I see.
Scans of my old school gel pen on construction paper early loops works. The green and blue are straight up scans. The others are playing around with mirroring and adding effects in Photoshop to scans of drawn works.
