386 - How to Create an Inspiring Prompt That Unlocks Your Most Inspired Creative Work

Some of the most inspired creative work you’ll ever do will happen before you touch your materials. You’re familiar with your art, but have you fully mastered the art of crafting personal creative prompts for your own work?

Every piece of work starts with an idea for what to make a piece about, and that idea is as important creatively as the work you make when you pick up your creative instrument.

If this is true, how do you craft a powerful prompt that will unlock your best work or at least something interesting to make next? This episode explores a framework for doing just that.
