Never realised how much of a difference the background can make...
so... 2 things, the first of which being the fact that I needed lifting up lately ive been feeling like I really dont want to do art or drawing anymore, im not sure why this is stress from home and college is probably a contributing factor but yes you may have noticed with the latest BYOI page that its not the best i can do
Secondly and this also doesnt help with the stress is the fact i dont want to draw gameon...l i dont really like drawing him anymore, he has a childish design with a heavily outdated purpose. He was originally made as a mascot for my gaming youtube channel at the time but i lost my passion for games... and now i think art is soon to follow suite... i dont want that to happen but... well what can you do about how you feel?... times have changed... my situation is different now from last year, im no longer in school... im on my own with no-one in person to banter with like I used to, im always stuck at home looking for something to do often bored outta my mind... I just cant draw anymore its too mentally taxing... ive tried various things over the time, changing my style, my construction method, the way i shade and colour... and none of it has worked I just... dont see any way foward with this path currently, as much as it pains me to say that...
anyways back to the point i dont really draw gamee enough anymore and i dont like drawing his design, its immature and a pain to include all the nitty details so I may make one of my other characters my main one. Prime candidate being solstice here as shes much more versatile in what you can draw with her, being bipedal and shes a lot simpler to draw, nothing is set in stone though as it will be a massive change... I have been debating changing gamee for the best part of a year and a half
Sorry for ranting on like that I just needed to lay my thoughts out somewwhere i guess its not healthy to keep things bottled up as it eats you up

Living on your own
Ah, I didn't know you moved out on your own. That's rough keeping track of everything by yourself. The first year is pretty hectic to try to get used to. Being alone is really boring. Oddly enough, opposite of you, the only thing to keep me sane was drawing, video games, and anime as I had nothing else to do. My socialization was from drawing, while video games (not very much, I chose art over games) and Anime (especially anime) was what relaxed me and calmed me. I also had a pet cat to keep me company. I might have become a hallow shell without art by myself since I can't drive to go anywhere.
Changing Your Sona
Your sona is completely up to you. A lot of people currently see you as Gamee but trust me, if you change your icon to any other OC, people begin to see you as that OC. Especially new people, as that is their first assumption as to who you are. Wearing an icon for a while also lets you see how comfortable you are with that character representing you. Ask yourself, "Are you comfortable with everything you type coming out of that OCs figurative mouth?" (((This is why I can't stand having Sin as my Icon for too long. I'll say something nice and practically throw up."))) You're free to change your sona to whoever you please, or whatever you please. It's also okay to see if you can create a character for yourself, too. More personalized. It's also okay to change a character to fit you more.
I was actually assuming already a long time ago you weren't satisfied with Gamee with how much form redesigning you were up to so many times.
Very Important Question.
What were you trying to get out of art in the first place? I ask this because I never thought you had a goal in art. If you just want it to be a hobby, and to do it for fun, there isn't much reason to drop it. You should enjoy the stories and moments you make with your art. If your goal was to become better... well I have some terrible news. You can only enjoy the ride as you go because "You can always become better." Do you know where you are going, or want to go in the first place? Because I know darn well there's no extra step up "Better" without your own goal of what you want to do for yourself. Did you start drawing to try to get famous? I suggest changing your goal if that's the case. Switch to something like, "Building an awesome community" "Creating something fun for people to enjoy" because it's really easy for people to start only seeing watchers as "Numbers" instead of people in a community around you. It can make one very unhappy when the numbers don't come in fast enough, or those numbers don't comment enough for you.

I dont live on my own but im often isolated away from me mother
No,no I was originally doing it just as a hobby, I had no intention to become a famous rockstar artist thing. All I wanted to do was draw really, i am well aware that numbers are not everything and that every "number" is a person and i do my best not to get stuck in that trap i draw what I want to with no schedule, im not fussed about how many watchers i have or how many favs come in or comments made, I just want to appreciate the community for what it is, this is primarily about my artworks and the process of actually making them on the canvas.
I dont have a goal in art but i guess ive been quite drained lately perhaps im growing out of the pokemon side of things, need to just move on from that side im not sure. I know there is always room for improvement and the absolute worst thing one can do (which i think is what ive done) is compare their artwork to others.
Maybe ill try making solstice my main for a little while see how that fairs out maybe it is the whole gamee scenario getting me down
