I'm a person that loves art especially abstract ones, but the problem is when i comes to illustrating like drawing my own cartoon character i lack of the skill to do it, i can't imagine what i am doing and i usually copy on the internet and available media's, the question is how can i improve my imagination to fit it to my creativity and art skill?

How can you have creativity and lack imagination? That's kind of a contradiction isn't it? If you are creative doesn't that also meant that you have imagination?
I am creative and I think that I have a pretty wild imagination.

lol wrong info i think it's not really creativity i mean the skills and capability to create and draw things i can only create art with abstract style which only need emotion but when it comes to sketching my own i can't draw a better one i need some copies or patterns to make it i cannot create it myself i lacks of imagination but when i got the right copy and patterns i can easily expand it that's what im trying to say.

hi jeremy0529 you cannot really be creative without imagaination so uyo have it, you just need to exercise it more. try writing a description of say an old knarled tree comparing it to something else say an elephant or an animal and see what you come up with in words? then try this with art work. exerise it and it will grow.try various types of things that make you stretch your imagination .pictures of things that are going opposite to what they do like an owl flying backwards or a clock going counter clockwise or an air p lane flying backwards, just try to see this.think of seeing a parade all going b ackwards. think of seeing people pretend
that they are kids and do kids tricks. anything to stir up your sense of imagination.

Creativity and imagination etc comes from our mind. When we give more time to ourselves or in other words when we do more thinking we can create imagination. Imagination is the creation of our life. We need to imagine like for example you like cartoon right. Think which all clothes that fit your cartoons and then think how does the character looks in party clothes and casual clothes. Think who all friends can be for the cartoon and then different situation. Simply thinking helps to increase your imagination.
