What inspires artists?

I am planning on writing a once a month newsletter on artistic inspirations. Of course I have my own thoughts which are personal that I will share, and I will interview some other artists for their input. Please sign up for the free newsletter and I would love to hear about your thoughts on inspiration.

Also I will post, within a day or two, another video on the process of a couple of my "Fantasy Females" from beginning to end. Here is a photo taken early in the creation.

Would you like to see more of this kind of thing?
