How to use Pinterest to create an inspiring mood board?

Pinterest is a fantastic tool for artists and creators who are looking for inspiration and want to structure their references in a visual and organized way. In this guide, I'll show you how you can leverage Pinterest to create a mood board that will serve as a visual guide and a constant source of ideas.

  • Initial search: Start by looking for specific topics that interest you; in this case, we could focus on elements of Muisca culture. Use keywords and explore museum pages or other reliable sources.
  • Collect images: Save all the images that you find useful or inspiring. Pinterest will suggest related images that could enrich your mood board.
  • Search categories: In addition to Muisca culture, consider looking for local festivities, illustrations and related photography, as well as artistic styles that catch your eye.

Pinterest not only helps you collect ideas, but also offers you a space to explore new creative connections based on your interests.

How do you make the most of your visual references?

Once you have your collection on Pinterest, it's crucial to make the most of these elements for your creative process. Here's how to analyze and use your visual references effectively.

  • Cross-references: Try to look for similarities and differences between your collected images and how they can be integrated into the creation of new pieces.
  • Artistic interpretations: Analyze how other artists have interpreted similar themes, such as indigenous mythology or illustration styles, to find inspiration for your own work.
  • Style studies: If you are still developing your own artistic style, observing how other artists approach certain subjects can be a great way to learn and experiment.

The key is to use these references not just as copy, but as a starting point to develop your own voice and visual style.

How to combine Procreate with Pinterest for your artistic development?

Now that you have a mood board full of potential, it's time to take those ideas to the digital canvas. Here I'll show you how to combine Pinterest and Procreate to bring your creations to life.

  • Split screen: Use the split screen feature on your iPad to view your Pinterest references while working in Procreate. This will allow you to copy elements and develop detailed studies of images and structures.
  • Graphic studies: Practice drawing structures of animals, humans and other cultural elements directly from your references. This will help you better understand their shapes and proportions.
  • Image manipulation: Download images to your gallery and drag them to your canvas in Procreate. You can change the opacity and create layers to draw on them, analyzing and adjusting details as needed.

This methodology not only helps you improve your technical skills, but also gives you a deeper understanding of the subjects you are exploring. It also allows you to experiment with different styles and techniques, enriching your creative process and broadening your artistic horizons. Using both tools in an integrated way can take your work to a new level, offering an interactive and creative learning experience that is both inspiring and educational.

parte de mi tablero en pinterest

Esto será todo un reto, aprenderé más para bocetar mejor mi idea y ya lo compartiré, ya tengo mi idea bien analizada.

Es muy interesante, pero es muy importante que el tema que se quiere hacer sea conocido, por ejemplo, en temas que no han sido tan trabajados es muy difícil encontrar una guía directa, y en ese caso debe haber una comunicación directa entre la idea (imaginación) y la búsqueda de inspiración.
