If you’re a digital artist feeling unexpectedly burned out on music, you’re not alone. After years of listening to everything from Taylor Swift to classical playlists during my art sessions and long drives, I hit a wall — and that’s when I discovered audiobooks. In this article, I share why audiobooks are perfect for digital artists, how they fit effortlessly into your creative workflow (think rendering, sketching, commuting, and studio routines), and how they can boost your productivity, focus, and creative inspiration. Whether you’re curious about the best audiobooks for artists, looking for a new way to stay inspired while creating, or wanting a screen-free source of storytelling, audiobooks might be the creative companion you didn’t know you needed.
