More creativity

This week I was inspired by the following video from a blog at inspiredology.com:

It is a short film using only cardboard and human sounds to tell the story.  The blog post had several other handmade videos on display.

In the world of programs, applications, and plug-ins, it's almost easy to be creative with just a little basic knowledge of each.  The cardboard cartoon above shows me that awesome creativity is possible using just your hands.  I think that handmade designs are often the most detailed and thought out pieces that a person can produce.  The video expands my creativity because it opened my eyes to new and different possibilities.  Not just creating things by hand, but using unique materials like cardboard can really draw an audience into your design.

The above photograph is depicting a giant hand-drawn mural.  I found this awesome piece of art when I was on stumble.com.  The image is titled "Solitude" and is 8ft across and 5ft high. In the photo, the artist is only working in graphite. He later finished it with ink and acrylic.  He started the work of art in 2010.  


The image is another example of an intricate and creative design done by hand that can be powerful and inspiring to its audience.  My creativity was expanded after looking at this piece because the artist really took his time to complete such a large and complex designed.  I was inspired to never restrict myself when thinking of ideas.  I need to be limitless and unleash my creativity.
