techpawn's Journal: The art of waiting

I always get amazed at the number of art geeks on Slashdot. It's not just the art geeks, but, the actually well informed art geeks who can hold a well informed discussion or debate on the topic.
I've seen my fair share of "my kid can do that" posts when discussing art but just as many, if not more, defending actual art and the artistic process. Now my girlfriend is the artists, I just draw things I want to see, but she actually holds a degree in fine art. She's hanging in galleries in the area... And has hit that inevitable slump all artists hit after a good creative run.

So, If there is anyone reading this I ask you: What's a good way to get her creativity going again? She specialized in screen printing and our apartment is too small for the equipment she would need, but, I hate to see her not working on her craft. I've asked her and get the ever so esoteric answer of "when the muse decides to return..." however, could it be a lack of space/materials that is keeping her "muse contained"

There seems to be some artistic people in the crowd or at least involved with artistic people. Any ideas of what I can do to help her get back to her art work or is it just a waiting game? ...Waiting game sucks, let's play hungry, hungry hippos!
