I dunno if you're in the mood to reply to this comment or if you ever will, but I'm gonna tell you something, Kaizi...
I've been like that for MONTHS. I can't even make vent art because I can't even accept my vent art. My gallery became more and more inactive and now I reached the point where I wanna blow shit up and yell "fuck this!" So many times. I know EXACTLY how painful it is because I'm also putting a lot of effort on it - my very soul, to say the least - and I know how painful and how artists you like can bring you down. On the other hand, I've seen guys who took 9 years to draw something cool looking, while others took a few months. I mean, how unfair is this?!
I know art is 90% about training and the rest is talent, but events like that make me doubt myself all the time! I can't color shit or imagine things in 3D, and even with references, I usually fail at doing them right! This pisses me off a lot! I think few friends of mine know how art is important to me and how I want to make a comic about my characters someday. But I never feel prepared for it, not even ready to make a simple, dog-shit quality comic. This also crushes me. I don't even have people who comment in my art that aren't my friends. My most viewed pictures in my galleries are memes and nothing really done by me. This is so fucking terrible...
I fear I might be getting a bit repetitive, so I think I'm gonna stop my comment here. But really, I need someone who likes to draw and also wanna learn as much as me! You just seemed to be the right person now. We could show each other's mistakes, improve together and stuff. The only thing I wanna tell you is please, PLEASE, don't stop. I like how simple your art is and I also love the way you color eyes, I even tried doing it myself one of those days without success. You even made a few commissions! If people bought stuff from you is because they value your work. You can't stop. Not now.
Sorry for the big-ass text wall, I didn't write even half of what I wanted. If you don't feel like chatting here or through shouts, you can always toss me a note. But please, do reply to my comment if you can.

hey kiddo, i hear you're feeling a bit down and...its ok to feel like you're going through an endless tunnel. we all feel that way in one way or another, and it could feel like you're drowning in a sea of whatever getting tangled in it and feeling stuck.
you're struggling, I've been there...too many times honestly. Its ok, you need a break, take one. hell take a whole month for yourself, anything to get you back to shape. but you don't need to stop altogether, there's a lot of thing you could do in the mean time. catch up on some good books, write a short romantic comedy or horror story, go out for a drive to a nice warm spot on the beach/valley and just take a nap on the hood of your car, hell maybe talk to some friends and start a fight club.
anything else to take your mind out of this dark place. you can do so much with this talent of yours and so many people came here to tell you that they love and they love your work. take your break, but please don't waste it.
