Creative blocks can be paralyzing. I know firsthand how deep those ruts can feel, and how impossible they seem to climb out of. That’s why I created Art (un)Block: a toolkit made by an artist, for fellow creatives.
Whether you’re an illustrator, sculptor, photographer, writer, or anyone who loves to create but sometimes feels stuck, disconnected, or like your spark has fizzled out. Each card reminds you that you’re not alone in facing those intrusive thoughts. It then guides you with a counteractive affirmation and a simple action you can take right away to ease the weight and reconnect with your creativity.
One each card:
Real intrusive thoughts: the ones that hit us hard.
Action steps: something you can do right now.
The right response: what we need to hear.
Pick a card. Put it beside your laptop, journel, sketchbook or easel. Maybe even do my exercise. Then repeat. May your journey be fulfilling and these cards support your steps along the way. Created by Seb Gower, a professional New Zealand impressionist artist who has inspired over half a million people with his craft, Art (un)Block is designed to help creatives of all kinds. Painters, illustrators, sculptors, designers, writers, and more - to overcome creative blocks, spark new ideas, and share their art with the world. Why you’ll love it: Actionable & Visual: Each card contains a mini print and a creative prompt to reignite your artistic flow. Affirmations for Creatives: Overcome intrusive thoughts and boost positive thinking. Perfect for Gifts: Ideal for artists, creatives, students, teachers, or anyone looking for inspiration. Compact & Collectible: Keep them on your desk, carry them in your bag, or give them as a thoughtful gift. Whether for yourself or as a gift for a creative friend, this deck is a wonderful way to ignite inspiration, nurture your artistic practice, and get out of your head to start creating again.
