Do fanart, but not normal fanart

find 2 characters you like and merge them if possible put them in a scenario created based on the character

Mechanism:

This works for the same reason that novice writers merge several stories or put characters that are not their own in alien situations for them, it helps your creativity and removes blocks.

Another option would be to brainstorm ideas, objects etc and draw based on this.

If you have artistic block, I recommend you meditate or go for a walk

Cottonwood Arts Sketchbooks

These are my favourite sketchbooks, hands down. Move aside Moleskine, you overpriced gimmick. These sketchbooks are made by entertainment industry professionals down in Los Angeles, with concept artists in mind. They have a wide variety of sketchbooks, such as toned sketchbooks that let you work both towards light and towards dark values, as well as books where every second sheet is a semitransparent vellum.
