The year is about to end and I've barely drawn

Posted by Malleys - November 28th, 2023


I feel pretty bad about it, I want to draw but I just: don't. Days pass and I don't do a single doodle but I've read some artists going through the same and that's somewhat of a relief at least, knowing we are not alone and so many of us are going through the same struggle, so if you also feel terrible because you feel you're wasting your time just know that It's not just you, you are not alone in this.

Maybe just me, but when I get that way, it helps to do something to remember the fun of drawing. Like Gartic.io or something. Dopamine boost!

You’re far from alone. One of the best things to do when you feel this way is to talk to people who have been through or are going through the same thing; often we’re able to encourage others more easily than we can encourage ourselves.

I made an Art Forum thread for that purpose and I’m happy to say it’s been somewhat successful; try posting and someone will likely have a thoughtful reply.
