How I cure myself of Artist's Block

I always run into a case of artists block. This has always worked out for me. Hopefully it will help you as well.

This style of art is what I used to draw back when I first got into art. Yes, I used to be an abstract artist way back in the day. I find that drawing abstract art really preps myself for drawing something more complicated. It sort of loosen's me up. It also helps me to get flow and rhythm into my artwork.

When I draw these, There are really only two things I think about. The first being composition. I like to try and balance the drawing out by keeping the "weight" even on all sides. The second would be repetition. I use very similar line structure through out the entire drawing, just repeated many times. By doing this, there is a sense of unification when one observes the drawing. It also helps the eye flow around the drawing.

Give something like this a shot, it is a very different style of art and you can make it into your own very personal way.
