Paper, plastic, resin, wood.
Everybody knows what a writer’s block is. But a painter’s block also exists. The poet Rilke had a block during 12 years due to a post First World War syndrome and after he finished the Sistine Chapel ceiling Michelangelo didn’t paint a single picture for years.
Here you can see a painter, frustrated because of a block you can just guess for. Whatever he does to get unstuck or re-inspired, why not exercise a little imagination, even have a little fuss, and risk being a little weird?
What’s the worst thing that could happen?
He could get laughed at!
What is the best thing that could happen?
He just might fall in love again!
