Basic extra information. I think it really just stems from the fact I'm no longer working a full time job. (That's the last time I had consistency in my art) I try to draw when I can, but l've also been staying away from it? I guess. I don't know... all I know is back in 2024/ early 2025 was my peak year for art. I created some of the best art I've ever made, an even started a comic series!! One I obsessed over and was really helpful!
But after a while I was just working on the comic (digital art became far too hard and aggravating) and had spells of not working on it that would last like a week. Then they started happening more frequently, the drawing phases shortening. And now I'm just occasionally able to draw "properly" for a week. And most attempts outside of that just don't look right. They look wrong to me and I don't know how to just get back my old style.
Best example is my OC Liz. I draw him a lot.
Like a lot a lot. And more often than not now any attempt to draw her just sucks and saps my energy. Even though I really JUST want to draw.
And again I know that my art is good. I fear coming across as just complaining or anything like that. And if it's how I come across Imk. Idk I'm trying to figure it all out.
And yeah just any advice.
I’m trying to rationalize. And I understand that a big part is just life is absolutely getting in my way with it. But it’s hard when one of the few things I try to do to relax is no longer relaxing.
