Organizing Your Artistic Inspirations with Google Keep: A Guide for Visual Artists

In the creative journey of any visual artist, inspiration plays a pivotal role. But how do you capture that initial spark and transform it into a work of art that resonates with your unique voice? In the YouTube video “ How to Find Inspiration ” we explored among other things the teachings of Austin Kleon in his captivating book “Steal Like an Artist”, emphasizing the importance of collecting, combining, and reinventing inspirations to forge our own artistic expression. It is in this light that Google Keep emerges as an essential tool for visual artists. Let PygmaliART guide you through this process of creative transformation.

The Essence of “Steal Like an Artist”

Austin Kleon explains that absolute originality is a myth and that all inspiration has an already existing source. He therefore encourages us to actively collect our inspirations, combine them in innovative ways, and express them with our own voice. He pushes us to see beyond simple inspiration: it is about transcending and reinterpreting what moves us, to make it our own.

Google Keep: The Ultimate Inspiration Collection Tool

Why is Google Keep so valuable in this process? Because it offers an immediate platform to capture any inspiration, in any form. Whether it’s a quote, an image, a melody, a video, a Pinterest pin; Google Keep allows you to save and organize these elements intuitively. As artists, having all our inspirations easily accessible makes it easier to combine them and transform them into something unique.
