I've been... struggling with the worst art block. I've been trying to take breaks that last no longer than a day but I hate everything I create. It's been very difficult to get into the mood but I'm very driven to draw as it's all I want to do. However, when I draw? I cringe at it and wind up throwing away or deleting what I make. I should be proud of how much I've improved over the years and simply enjoy creating but I feel the need to be better.
Because I struggle to draw backgrounds beyond what I learned in perspective class (I struggle digitally and need a reference to make backgrounds). and mechs and tech (which I love very much) I feel I am awful at everything. Yet here I am, struggling at drawing now everything- especially spaceships (SPACESHIP!) and robots. I'm starting to draw what I struggle with and don't know because I want to become good at them.
I love sci fi. I want to draw sci fi but I've always been scared to. I still am but it's time that I try. I want to draw and do what I love. I'll be doing a lot of research in my new art book and online tutorials, but it'll be worth it.
Question. How do you get through art block? I try to take a break then just play around with art after or get inspired with a project.
Woops... If you use other social media, please follow me there. I am far more active there than I am here. I post sketches, WIPs, and completed works on Twitter while Tumblr posts the completed works. (It might start getting the sketches as well). Would anyone be interested if I posed sketches here? They'd go in scraps, of course.
