What’s Blocking YOUR Creativity? - Draftsmen S3E34

I love Prokopenko generally, however, I find these videos, which can have alluring titles, extremely frustrating and unwatchable. There is too little content, too much pfaff and too many American cultural references not relevant to non-Americans. This is my last time attempting to watch one of these. I love the drawing lessons though.

Sometimes it can be difficult to get your creative juices flowing. Using two books, How to Be More Creative by David D. Edwards and Fishing for Elephants by Larry Moore as touchstones, Stan and Marshall discuss some of the most common creative blockages, where they come from, and what impact they can have on artists.
