Creative Conversations

A short while ago I wrote about my attempts to harness inspiration. All of us find ideas for our next project in different places, and I suspect many book artists have a collection of book making magazines and books shelved in their studio or workspace and an embarrassing number of bookmarked sites stored on their computer.

I am a sucker for books, magazines, catalogs, and anything on the subject on the internet. But, the most valuable creative resource for me are other book artists.

Face to face conversations, debates, sharing, and the like for me are invaluable. I am amazed at the variety and talent of others. Even when it's an artistic avenue I don't pursue, I am charged by listening to these creative folk.
