Hello! I'm scared.
I've been drawing for some time now but only recently decided to join dA in an attempt to get more social about art and try to improve at the same time 
It would be great to meet people on here and have a chat, maybe an art trade sometime in the future
Random question - where do you get most of your inspiration from?

Inspiration can come from many things. Music, memories, experiences, emotions, a dash of nostalgia. Other artists I look up to.
Yep I love looking at other artist's work, but it can make you depressed at the same time knowing it will take you ages to get to that level 
Well at the same time, you should work on getting to your own level. Be inspired, but don't try to replicate them 
Yep definitely, that's what I'm aiming at now
where´s the horror in that? pfft, lame.

Hey, there! Welcome to DA! We all nice here!
Where do I get my inspiration? A couple things. I get inspired from myths, tv shows, comic books, other people's art, and my subconscious, also known as DREAMS.

I love myths too I tend to forget my dreams as soon as I wake up though! 
I tend to forget my dreams as soon as I wake up though! Great! XD That happens to me too. Not if you have very vivid dreams. Heck I remember one back from 5th grade! XD But I do love writing stuff from dreaming. Some of them are very good, they are worthy of being on paper.
Welcome to DA! Don't be scared, we're all nice here.

Hello! Welcome to DA!!
Well, I try and look for inspiration everywhere. The way how people's expressions change when having a conversation, the bird on the windowsill every morning (I wonder why it's always my window?), how people dress, or reading stories whilst listening to music. That last one is the one where I really get my best drawings. Especially when I'm listening to instrumental or classical. I suggest "Brunuhville" in YouTube. His music is one of the things that have the greatest impact in my sketches.
Or sometimes I just take the time and look at what my cat does. This usually spurs me to draw very cute/silly sketches.

I'll have a look at the artist! I started listening to instrumental/classical when doing my final exams and it was great. I know what you mean by looking everywhere, I've started looking at random people more closely, especially at faces. Also I love cats 
My mom has 2 and they're insane.
My mom has 2 and they're insane.Classical is great for when I'm trying relieve stress, esp. for finals. Luckily, my mother love them as well and I can listen to them for days without one of them repeating. It's that many. XD Sometimes, I try to remember any interesting topic I've talked with one of my friends/family today and try to draw something from that. I've had lots of abstract drawings and all of of them came from conversation with my little sister.
Joking I'll try to note down anything interesting that happens/I hear for future reference
I'll try to note down anything interesting that happens/I hear for future reference Of course! Good luck!! 
But...but...I'm an only child 
O-Oh! I guess the interesting conversations you have with your parents? My father and I have a fair share of hilarious topics. Or conversations with your best friend(s).
Buggabugga boo
so are you more scared now?^^
Music.
Like the stories that lie in the lyrics
When I draw I often listen to the song Flammenfest
