It's maybe possible that you're burned out on art because there's just so much of it being produced now. FA felt like a much smaller place even ten years ago. Now it feels so oversaturated and there's so much to look at. The internet is like that in general now though, we're constantly bombarded with content, it's no wonder we get burned out on it.

Maybe a break would help? Maybe thinning out the watchlist so it's just those artists whose work you really love and resonate with? I don't know, I get where you're coming from. The community nowadays feels different, people don't comment or engage as much anymore, maybe because they're all burned out too. As an artist I feel obligated to churn out "content" for people to look at, and to pay my bills. Maybe we are just getting old, lol.

I'm in this exact boat. And agree with the points Rapps has brought up as well.
I'm a long time artist. Even my own art turned forgettable. I noticed, over the years, it became less of thoughtful/story art and soon morphed into "content" for the sake of content. Empty, comfortable, easy, content. (For a number of reasons I won't write out here, or else this will be a super long reply)

This happened once I posted heavily online.
It doesn't help how little people engage if you're not one of the top (usually adult focused) artist. Posting art to an empty void is very discouraging for many.

I can't say the same for other artist (everyone has different reasons for posting ofc), but for me I've had to address this by significantly slowing down. Stop drawing "just because", and focus on what I truly enjoy about art/being an artist...even if it means receiving no engagement, little watchers, and posting a lot of character focused/story driven art no one cares about.

Because that stuff never mattered in the first place for me. Online posting made me believe it mattered (thus falling into that hole of factory content/chasing engagement).

You know you earned a watch for that comment right?

Very well thought out and put together.

I'm inclined to agree. The constant focus on sex isn't helping.

Sex is great.

But sex everywhere is boring.

Agreed

i've felt this way for a long time as well. But i think it's got to do with the purpose the art is created in first place. Most people do expect the drawings to be hot and that's pretty much about it. There definitely is a certain art style that is the most common one for this use case so to speak and i think You'd know what i'm talking about. As i don't draw furry porn for the living and it's only a hobby for me, i don't feel a need to chase this style so i can do whatever. I'm not saying drawing porn is not creative, but it's by design not something you look too long at and think too much about, after having.. done the obvious thing. There are many artists putting a lot of interesting different styles in their erotic art - but there are also many who don't. It's like with radio-friendly music i think. I don't know i'm bad at babbling about artistic things as i'm mostly, a metalwork guy so what do i know. But i think i do understand what you're feeling about it, and i can relate to that. Cheers.

Your artwork is distinct and feels different. While there are minor flaws in it (everything does though) they actually enhance the "realism" of the piece and come out as a better l.

Think how rock hasv flaws in it that enhance the excitement vs pop that is prefect but generic.

Your work is actuality refreshing.

Aside that i want to play with that goose, you have a feeling to your work that reminds me of early artwork from the 90s and 2000s, which is to say: warm.

I look forward to seeing what you do my new friend.

I think especially nowadays seeing the human or. a different critter, in this case, element in art as you mean, mistakes, imperfections etc. is even more important - i try my best of course but i know it will never be perfect and i don't try to chase perfection. Sometimes i spent a week on a drawing and i will have to tell myself to stop, as in, okay, that's good enough.
I am honored you think that of my drawings, there's a lot of people way better than me that do feel unique to me, i think my biggest source of inspiration would be Mike Kazaleh's works though his style is totally different, My favourite bit of his artwork would be the "mean green bondo machine" art-book.
That is real art in my opinion, furry art.
Rock can be made like pop too - overproduced and synthetic and then i can't listen to it :)
Oh boy well i hope whatever you want to play with me is not something like spin the bottle. hahaha

Spin the something and see what pops up, right?

I'm always open to you.

Take that as you like, DM or whatever
