Finding inspiration

Young artists and designers reveal the sources of their creative inspiration - from music and photography, to visiting galleries and other craftspeople.

It can be difficult to decide how to start an art or design project because there are so many things to consider. You will need to think about the following:

  • - what type of subject will you choose, eg portrait, landscape, still life?
  • design area - what type of design problem will you work on, eg architecture, graphic communication, textile?
  • - will your work show a personal interest, a social issue, a particular emotion?
  • artists and designers - what can you learn from the creativity, ideas and techniques of others?
