Awaken Your Creativity with Geometric Shapes: Practical Tips by Studio Passeio

Often, we face a blank screen with more fear than enthusiasm. However, the key to unlocking creative flow might just lie in the imposition of limitations. Here are some tips inspired by Studio Passeio's experience, to help free your creativity, especially in creating vibrant and expressive characters.

• 1. Use Simple Geometric Shapes: Start with the basics - circles, squares, triangles. These shapes can transform into the foundations of incredible characters. It's an excellent starting point for those seeking simplicity and creativity.

• 2. Combine Shapes in Innovative Ways: Experiment with combining different geometric shapes to create unique characters. Change sizes, positions, and proportions to see how each adjustment affects your character's personality.
  

• 3. Explore Facial Expressions: Small changes in the arrangement of eyes, mouth, or eyebrows can completely change a character's expression. Use this to your advantage to bring life and emotion to your drawings.
  

• 4. Establish a Limited Color Palette: Setting a color palette before starting might seem restrictive, but it actually helps create visual harmony and stimulates creativity within those limits.
  

• 5. Allow Yourself to Experiment: Don't be afraid to make mistakes. Experimentation is key in the creative process. Try different styles, techniques, and approaches. Each mistake is a valuable lesson and an opportunity to see things from a new perspective.
