--90% of the artists I know have been through that fase, now they are good, but then they were mediocre if anything. And I've had people being amazed at my shitty paintings full of mistakes (like literally, if I went through everyone's sketchbook in here, we would find a common place in the first 5-15 pages were our work looks all the same)

--Alright, am I the only one who has seen galleries of ''Amazing art by prodigy childs'', with work that is literally the low-middle level work that we all do? You know, pushing too much the contrast in values and getting skin that looks metallic, or giving everything a plastic feel

--maybe i should stop being a concept artist and start doing abstract stuffs ..... NOT

--branstorming is all about finding the right idea randomizer is more about doing a new idea never tried before

--for me brainstorming is when you take what you know and try to find interesting mix

--Yup, I do that too in my design process. I feel like my worklflow is just not the ''average'', what works for most people doesn't work for me, which is not a bad thing because I already have a lot of my workflow figured out

--The thing is, I get my best ideas when I'm super concentrated in getting them, that mens, when I'm looking at a blank piece of paper thinking about what I'm going to draw, or sitting in the bus trying to figure out how to improve the delivery of a joke I wrote down a week ago

--i have seen one exercise you do random scribble and you try to do something with it

--Dan Luvisi keeps mentioning it, and I keep trying it but in my case it's useless. But i've found that running for 40 minutes in the morning keeps me more productive during the rest of the day, and I'm more creative sitting in the couch, meditating or whatever, without any distractions (or ignoring them), I think it's because then I get bored, and my brain has to think about something, I come up with the most random ideas

--Lyraina, for you that have been experimenting, coolorus 2.0 just launched and they have a gamut masking tool, complete with brightness control. You may want to check it out :)

--well i would say go for a walk and brainstorm will looking at some inspiration on a mobile device

--hm, naw. Sorry guys for letting personal stuff slip out, but your responses helped! I'm not mulling over it much now, and can focus on work that needs done.
