40 CREATIVES FIND INSPIRATION IN ISOLATION<br />
SUMMER 2020
the first half of 2020 has been challenging<br />
<strong>for</strong> everyone. People who make their living<br />
doing something creative are among those<br />
most heavily impacted by a quickly changing<br />
work landscape, instability, stifling<br />
fears and a soul-sucking lockdown.<br />
As an antidote, we invited some of the<br />
most talented people we know – who also<br />
happen to be women – to contribute to a<br />
magazine about finding inspiration during<br />
the pandemic.<br />
What follows is a collection of musings<br />
from our stellar group of illustrators,<br />
designers, photographers and fine artists<br />
from around the world.<br />
We're hoping you'll find their work as<br />
inspiring as we do!<br />

INSPIRATION<br />
We count among the many women working in the creative departments at the weekly newspaper DIE ZEIT.<br />
Of the approximately 30 full-time employees in the art, photo, editorial design and infographics departments, two-thirds are<br />
women. We’re a great team and we inspire each other.<br />

The persistence of voice • It began with 8 minutes and 46 seconds of earth-shattering sounds – the sounds of George Floyd and witnesses to his killing pleading <strong>for</strong> his life. This piece<br />
addresses how that voice gave birth to others raising their voices, by showing protesters’ faces within the wave<strong>for</strong>ms of the audio of Floyd’s last moments. And now, the protesters’ voices<br />
perpetuate the process. They are prompting others to speak up, self-examine, and have deep, nuanced conversations about what the future of race should look like.<br />

If you have to wear a mask ...<br />
it might as well be fun<br />
I started making masks early on<br />
as a stress-reliever, then decided<br />
to challenge myself to make them<br />
from materials I had at home.<br />
These are functional masks with<br />
filter pockets and a nose wire,<br />
from a U of M pattern (natch).<br />
Long-<strong>for</strong>gotten scarf found in a drawer<br />
Dress that’s just a little too low cut <strong>for</strong> com<strong>for</strong>t Scarf hand-dyed by a close friend Favored dress with sleeves that always annoyed me Cute top, but sequins? So not me. Loved the lace, tho.<br />
Top left: The base is a scarf, then I started playing with top stitching.<br />
I made about five versions of this. It isn’t my favorite, but it photographed<br />
best.<br />
Immediate left and far right: Homer Hankies from Twins World<br />
Series runs. Right: It was fun to play with the idea of bandanas, even<br />
if they came from scarves.

Emma, my muse<br />
Do I come up with my own original images and ideas?<br />
Do I find inspiration in other artists’ work?<br />
Do I work in one particular medium and perfect my skill?<br />
Do I have a muse that inspires and energizes my work?<br />
Antoni Gaudi, Park Guell<br />
Do I look to other artists <strong>for</strong> their approval?

hen I think about what inspires me...so<br />
many things come to mind. The small<br />
W<br />
mirror-ball on my dresser that catches<br />
the light just right in the afternoon to<br />
turn the room into a sunshine disco-tech. Finding<br />
faces and hearts in the sidewalk, imagining<br />
how they came to be. Learning to play guitar,<br />
marveling at the music your hands can make. A<br />
fresh baked Dutch baby coming out of the oven<br />
like a magical breakfast-y orb. The flower market<br />
in NYC trans<strong>for</strong>ming the floral district into a tiny<br />
<strong>for</strong>est be<strong>for</strong>e the sun comes up.<br />
But I think the most consistent way I find<br />
inspiration involves awareness and appreciation.<br />
How the little things I see over and over contain<br />
magic and are in themselves — treasures.<br />
Blue doors have always been one of those things<br />
<strong>for</strong> me. So many doors are black or brown or red<br />
or white. When I see a bright blue door, I am filled<br />
with joy and my imagination takes flight. Who<br />
painted the door blue? What’s behind the blue<br />
door? Do the people who live there love it as much<br />
as I do? And how many can I find? I am inspired<br />
by the possibility of the story lines and that creates<br />
a kind of magic I can inject into work, life and<br />
everything in between.<br />
How many blue doors will you find today?

CRACKING THE<br />
INSPO<br />
CONUNDRUM.<br />
Julie Elman | Ohio<br />
Words + illustrations by Julie M. Elman • @joodlesbyjulie<br />
Always drawing, always doodling — that’s what<br />
I love to do. Through teaching and doing, here’s<br />
what I’ve gleaned over the years, about this<br />
elusive thing we all crave: inspiration.<br />
Ready. Set. Go. Working with a prompt and a time limit can be<br />
freeing and result in the unexpected. Above is an excerpt from a larger piece I created, working with the overall theme “the ties that bind.”<br />
Look.<br />
There’s so much out there. It can be overwhelming.<br />
When seeking inspiration, I take note of when my<br />
inner creative self lights up. I curate and tuck away the<br />
good stuff I find. Photos, illustrations, type treatment,<br />
packaging, you name it. Anything goes.<br />
Reflect. Make. Repeat.<br />
Tapping into my initial instincts is important when on the<br />
hunt <strong>for</strong> inspiration. Sometimes, though, I find it useful<br />
to take a more user-experience approach and imagine<br />
purpose, intent, and audience on any given piece I’m<br />
curious about. I ask myself “why?” a lot.<br />
The cliché of “just do it” always comes in handy here.<br />
Staring at a screen, or mulling it over (whatever that “it”<br />
might be) till I think something is ready to be created<br />
means there’s a damn good chance it won’t happen.<br />
So I make stuff — the good, the bad and the ugly.<br />
Practice is where the rubber meets the road. If I don’t<br />
continue doing and making, I lose momentum. When I<br />
keep at it — without waiting <strong>for</strong> inspiration to strike — I<br />
find myself getting more confident with sharing works in<br />
progress. “Repeat” is the antidote to perfectionism.<br />
It’s my party … When it comes to creating my own stuff,<br />
I like what I like. I try my best to keep the “shoulds” at bay.<br />
Work it out. Sketching helps to jumpstart my process.<br />
I made the drawing, above, in a doctor’s waiting room.<br />
Nope! I don’t suck, and neither do you. Don’t think about<br />
“making Art.” Think: ideas, expression, process.<br />
Precious? No thanks. I sketch on whatever’s around:<br />
a napkin, scraps of paper, wood. It’s all good.<br />

These days of being home even more than<br />
usual, I often find inspiration on my walks.<br />
Sometimes it’s light reflecting off the trees,<br />
how the wind blows the tall grass, and often<br />
I pick wild flowers on my way home and paint<br />
them, as I’ve done here. Painting flowers is<br />
usually soothing <strong>for</strong> me. I am inspired by the<br />
shapes of the flowers and leaves, but not<br />
trying to paint exactly what I see.<br />
