"If we can dream it, we can do" Walt Disney
i miss being as active on here and DA as i used to be, posting stuff more than once a week, being a bit more involved with the community at times, back when i had a good work ethic and motivation for art and stuff, and not worrying about sharing stuff with friends first before posting (which has been bit of a problem with waiting to share through voice chat first). but as the years have gone on, things slowed right down to a crawl, to where i have a backlog of sketches i never got to and finished pics that are many years old that don't really fit with the newer stuff and standards.
The sad part is that much of our culture nowadays compared to 10/15 years ago is much more difficult, depressing, and outright insane at what has been happening in real life. From brutal politics, to potential war (hope to god it doesn't happen but you'll never know), it's been quite hard for people to have a stable living, let alone if you're able to keep your job because companies want to replace humans with artificial computer programming, robots, and internet only software that would try and beat out human beings by a long shot....The 2020s and 2010s have been quite rough decades for the past 10 to 15 years, let alone after 2000 and 2001. So it takes time, but I do hope by the time 2030s, 2040s, and 2050s comes around, things will hopefully settle down compared to the 2010s and 2020s. But only time will tell what happens in the future. Change is coming, and whether people want it or not, even if I'm behind the times, I just know that I'm satisfied with what I have, including past content that I'm able to access without issue.
As for your artwork, I haven't checked on it until you mentioned it here. So again, it's okay to feel this way, you just gotta push forward and continue posting stuff anywhere you can to show it off, even if it's in the scraps or gallery part of your art page/art channel.
