How to boost your imagination

Do you want to learn how to boost your imagination and be more creative? In this video I will discuss some unconventional methods to improve your imagination. I will begin by explaining how and why our imaginations become stunted, before sharing some of my personal methods for how to be more creative.

Dude.. I just recently discovered your videos.
They are criminally underrated ressources for aspiring artists.

[@matthewdobrichillustration9014]

Thank you so much for the encouraging words! Comments like this really motivate me to keep making these videos, so thank you!

[@JessicaKolasinski]

Thanks for sharing. I needed to hear this! I gotta break away from Pinterest and get some fresh inspiration. Love your work too!

[@matthewdobrichillustration9014]

Thank you so much for watching! I'm so glad you found it useful. Let me know how you go with finding those unconventional sources of inspiration, I'd love to hear about what you find 🙂... and steal it for myself 😏

Great work and commentary! Much inspiration!

Thank you kindly! :)

This is really goood. How did you learn to draw? I'm trying but is pretty hard to find the way.

[@matthewdobrichillustration9014]

Thank you! I taught myself by watching TH-cam videos and practising every day. The most important thing is to stay motivated even when it all seems too hard. Finding a good community of people who are also trying to improve can help to keep you motivated. Best of luck and enjoy the process!

thanks! Im not a (drawing) artist but still agree with most of what you said. Though its a bit the other way around, whenever I hit a wall when writing my stories it helps to look at art, listen to music, change the medium like you suggested! And nature, obviously, always helps.
Bit of critique, the music was rather loud at the beginning, it was getting hard to hear you, but it got better later on.

Also the camel is hilarious

[@matthewdobrichillustration9014]

Thank you so much! It's so interesting to hear that you've had a similar, yet reversed, experience with your writing! It must be simple good practise to diversify your interests if you are attempting something creative., but I hadn't considered a writer's perspective before.
Thank you for the critique, I'll definitely make sure to keep that volume under control. I'm trying to make these videos as good as I can, so input like this is worth it's weight in gold!

[@matthewdobrichillustration9014]

He has a hard life hahaha

[@LeeGrey]

Nice video. Great advice for all! Cheers :)

[@matthewdobrichillustration9014]

Thanks for watching! I'm glad you found it helpful :)

Dwarf Fortress looks cool. Reminds me of Rim World! Apparently its coming to Steam at some point too. Definitely going to add it to my wishlist!

[@Heopful]

you can just download it now, it's free. Good luck don't give up

[@matthewdobrichillustration9014]

Yes, it is coming to steam! with graphics and some kind of mouse interface, almost like a normal game haha. I posted some links in the show notes if you are interested in trying it now, if you are a fan of rim world, it should be right up your alley :)

[@alreannaebersole8151]

When I was a kid I used to get grounded from reading books lol

[@matthewdobrichillustration9014]

Haha they'll rot your brain! Go and play some video games like a normal kid
