Much artistic inspiration to be ffffound…

Odds are, you already know about Ffffound (you hip, wired devil, you). But in case you don’t, here’s my hat-tip to this veritable treasure-trove of dazzling photographic and illustration inspiration. Nuff said.

Click the logo and go ffffind something that moves you (and if you’re really inspired, email me about it because I’m always looking to be inspired – particularly in unexpected ways, at unexpected times).

Here’s a similar website that you may not have heard of: enjoysthin.gs. [I hadn't heard of it until supercool Twitterer Joshua hipped me to it.] I suggest looking deeper than first squint at this website. When I first landed on this site, it didn’t immediately impress. But when I dug just a little bit, I uncovered a torrent of inspiring images. Another cool thing about this site is that unlike Ffffound, it’s simple to become an editor, so the UGC mojo can easily flow…

My friend Inti recently hipped me to another blog dripping with creative inspiration called “Inspire Me Now,” which feature tons of images that live up to the demand of the title. [The image of the guy pulling the asphalt over Mother Nature is by Erik Johnassen, BTW.]

It truly blows me away how much creativity is going on all around the world. There truly never has been a more exciting time to be a photographer, illustrator, or visual artist, IMHO.
