In Carla Sonheim’s Drawing Lab book (amazon link) there are many different ideas for approaching drawing.

One that I found very useful was that you don’t need to reimagine everything you draw. There are a ton of inspiring things in the world. You can even get inspiration in strange places.

I would sometimes carry a camera with me and take pictures of cracks in the sidewalk. I took this picture when I was walking not from my house with my grandmother.

I saw something that looked kind of like a dragon. So I used that shape to draw a dragon.
