Lately, I've been trying to get more into "art" type creativity. I took a couple art classes in high school (over 10 years ago!), but since then, I haven't spent much time with paints or anything. It's surprisingly hard to get back into it -- I always struggle with deciding what to draw or paint, I spin my wheels thinking about finding my artistic "voice" or "style" -- But I'm working really hard at just relaxing about it. There's this Ira Glass quote about creative work where he says his best advice is basically to just create a huge body of work, and I'm trying to keep that advice in mind as motivation to keep going.
