Food for an Artist

Coming up with ideas for projects, assignments, or freelance work can be difficult, especially if you are like me (juggling a part-time job, volunteer work, leadership roles, and freelance work). I am a little scattered-brain (okay maybe a lot), so it is always difficult for me to settle on just one idea. To help me combine ideas (or to create ideas) into one I tend to browse through some of my favorites websites. Because I know the struggle of pinning down ideas, or in my case one idea, here are my top 2 resources (in no particular order):
