slower art
10 years ago
art block strikes again. hard.
I've had extreme trouble with things I usually don't even have to put any thought into in order to draw.
Sometimes I have days where I just can't draw, period. I thought it was that, but after like a week of struggling to draw just muzzles, eyes, noses, and every other little thing, I've come to the realization that this is going to be here a while.
This started after I finished that commissioned piece "The Hunter", and my guess is that I overworked myself or something, and now my brain isn't wanting to correctly proportion things, or draw angles correctly, or anything. At all. Nothing. And it's pretty degrading when I see my old sketches and think how much better and more realistic they look than currently.
this is NOT an art block related to "no inspiration" because I've had too much of that, in fact. I would actually much rather have no ideas than no ability to draw them.
this is just going to send me into another fit of heightened depression. I could feel it a few days ago, I felt it every time I closed SAI, and I can feel it now. I'm sorry you guys have to put up with all my shit but I might as well inform people of my state of mind when it affects my commissions.
And it was the worst feeling I've ever had in art in all my years of arting.
SO I FEEL FOR YA.
I hope it doesn't last too long. ;o;!!
I'm so glad you got out of it!! And thank you ;;
