How exciting is it to think that scrolling away on Pinterest is actually productive! Taking advantage of the endless bank of photos on Pinterest serves your motivation and artistic style well.
How to Get Motivated to Do Art: Create an Aesthetic Board
Your aesthetic board is where you will pin photographs that you instinctually find beautiful. It will be a visual culmination of what moves you emotionally and energizes you.
Don’t pin images that make you think twice about whether you think they’re beautiful or not. For this board, think primarily of the photography of the image, not necessarily the significance of the subject matter.
An aesthetic board is important to have because it gives you consistency as you evolve as an artist and a person. It reminds you of what is truly authentic about who you are. It’s a big help as well when you’re learning how to develop your artistic voice.
Where to Find Art Inspiration: Personal Symbols Board

Examples of symbols can vary, from animals, and places, colors , numbers, archetypes and shapes. They’ll often appear repeatedly in various areas of your life.
This collection of symbols is unique and powerful to you as an individual. This board will help you become more aware of what is significant for you. You will begin to understand how these symbols relate to what you want to communicate to the world through your art.
