As a creative person, I need to look at a lot of imagery to be inspired. Lately, I've discovered that Pinterest has been a great tool for me to find artistic pictures that I love. If you aren't aware, "Pinterest is a vision board-styled social photo sharing website and app where users can create and manage theme-based image collections. The site's mission statement is to "connect everyone in the world through the 'things' they find interesting".
Personally, I just know Pinterest as my new form of addiction. Whenever I come across a design I like, I "pin" the image to a board I've labeled as "Inspiration"... Lately I've been in a rut trying to brainstorm my Summer 2012 show .. I know I want a Mexican/Latin inspired series... with lots of color and patterns... so over the past week I've been collecting images that portray that... if you haven't joined Pinterest yet... I highly recommend that you do. Whether you're planning your wedding, redecorating your house, or just need a visionary board for your creative outlets (like myself)... this website does it all... and the best part is, you can follow your friends and feed off each other... below are my pins for my next painting series.
