HT1413 - Out of the Creative Rut

If you ever find yourself in a creative rut, and don't we all from time to time, the surefire way to break out of the rut is to pursue a very narrow challenge. For example, try putting together a portfolio of pine needles, or mason jars, or smoothly rounded pebbles, or landscapes that include the moon. Just pick something, anything, and explore it consistently and with depth. The mere challenge will enliven your creative spirit, and more importantly, build some creative momentum.
