Art is pain. Nothing feels good enough for me anymore when I draw. But hey, at least I fucking tried today, so there's that.

Really been having trouble motivating myself to draw much anything when I feel like ain't a damn thing I draw meets my standards anymore. I know that this is Bad Brain talking and that, like every other period of time where Bad Drain gave me bad art feels, it will pass... But goddamn I feel like this combined with everything that led me to leave most other social media and stop streaming, I feel like my creative life is coming to an end now.
@zeiroslion heard, liom. take a liom brain break and rest. camt brute force its way through burnout (my heart on the other hand.....)
@zeiroslion so my observation of myself is that when I feel like this it's because my brain has understood a shortcoming and is dissatisfied with what I'm producing, and if I start doing some work that's purely for myself, not intended for public, pressure off, I will eventually manifest a new skill/level.
@zeiroslion I adore body horror like this 👀
@zeiroslion nah, you're great, fam! I love seeing your art, even your WIPs. I've personally decided to ruin everything in my art life by switching to Krita... from Procreate... from Adobe Draw... from Adobe Fresco... It's going great. I am reminded that 90% of my ability is finely tuned brushes that are literally never the same from program to program, so think of it this way: It could be worse  (made in inkscape, because what is an artist if not one in permanent tool hell)
