Buy steel bars and make into cannonballs to sell <| sep |> I find looking at instagram ' s of other artists who work in similar or different mediums really refreshing not to steal work for maybe for inspirations or tips about certain mediums , I personally like to mix mediums and sometime ' s it ' s cool to see the ways other people might mix two mediums I mix and how their method is different from my own . But I also find sometimes that just doing art and finishing it leads to more inspiration and that ' s definitely how I have found all the styles I have gone through so far in my artistic careerhobby . Also I find learning new things anything really about topics , especially things that are tumultuous , can be inspiring . As simple as that sounds , like no shit politicshistory influences art but maybe reading a book on the french revolution or something makes you think . These are all short term , long term style is found mostly by doing art and you ' ll see it ' s very subject to change . The art I make now is completely different stylewise to the art I made two years ago .
