How do artists develop content and ideas for their work?
A lot of art comes from self and personal experience. People create art of what they know and what they want to know, whether that is a feeling, an event, or a person. Personally, I like to take channel my emotions through my art.
Webs, planning sketches, gesture drawings, the first layer of pencil in a drawing are important ways of testing ideas to see if they are appealing. Getting opinions from fellow artists is also helpful. Ultimately I feel like art is not really about engaging the viewer, but expressing yourself as an artist.
