| | Inspiration
I started out wanting to do a piece pertaining to a drawing table. As I went on my idea seemed lacking and I was racking my brain for an extension of my idea I came up with one. I used my Artistic Block as my idea. Changing the medium that I was struggling to find an idea for into a story about the artistic block.

| | Problems and Solutions
I ran into a few problems early on and it didn’t really get easier from there. Acclimating myself with some of the tools was difficult. I first rendered a chair and it was really simple and didn’t fit well with my final scene. So I had to eventually rerender a new chair which was fun because I had bettered my skills at that point.
There was some difficulty in layout that I ran into where I accidentally clicked onto a different frame and it wouldn’t let me move my objects I asked Clark about it and he explained to me what I had done. I also had a few problems with the lighting, the shadows were funny and in I had two lights that were conflicting I messed with a few settings and moved the lights around and it solved itself.
