Brilliant post! I’ve done them in the past but have somehow forgotten about them. Will definitely try this approach again. They work so much better than a list. Thanks for sharing! 🤩
Oh this is so helpful! Despite creating a jar of my own prompts for my 100 Day Project there are inevitably some I feel more drawn to than others. If something isn't sparking I'm going to mind map and see what comes up. Thank you for pushing it into combinations too, makes it much more interesting.
Hooray for mind maps!! 🗺️ They’re so wonderful and helpful. I have a little series on my Substack called “Mind Your Own Map” to help me make connections in my daily life. I’ve loved seeing what themes pop up! Thanks for sharing this post and spreading the mind map love.
That’s amazing thanks! The funny part is - I know what mind maps are, lived to do them in the past but forgot about it hahaha… so it sounds like a new hobby for me :D
As a dyslexic person, I've always loved mind maps to help capture the randomness of my brain and help me find a way to shape my thinking in a way others might understand!
It's all about the connections!
I've struggled then to find a digital way to capture all the information I come across ... I've tried Evernote , Google Keeps and loads of others...
I thought it was a mission that was doomed to failure ...until I came across...www.capacities.io
Holy moly...my randomness suddenly becomes a plethora of connectedness! You can even click a wee button and see a mind map of those connections!
I cannot recommend it enough. It has totally encouraged me to see that all the odd things I come across and want to collect (like some kind of information magpie) makes sense!!
Like mind maps...then give it a try ... Life won't be the same! Promise!!

I love how you’ve imagined up a lamp post plant. It would be really neat to see how the rest of the city would look.

You might be the person to FINALLY convince me to give mind maps a go! (I'm shocked)

Oh! I forgot about mind maps. I'm definitely going to do some this week.
And love that rat's face too!
This is such a great use of mind maps! Thanks for showing your process on here with them!
I was not into Mind mapping before. But using it a lot more now days. Like coming up with new characters, youtube etc.
But never for my illustrations. Hopefully that will change with time 😁
