I’m sorry... but this could be my final piece

Postby No one » Tue Feb 16, 2021 12:28 pm

I’m sorry to everyone who has to see this art piece, but I am considering stopping all forms of art completely. My art feels more like a chore every day and I feel more pressured to do art than relax and let myself melt away into the art piece I draw. I feel like my art has turned for the worse road and I think that it is time that me and art possibly part ways. None of my art makes sense anymore and all it does is bring sadness when I look at it from my perspective. You all may say oh your art is great and oh it’s cute, but from my perspective, all I see is terrible art and no sign of improving. I am deeply sorry to spring it on all of you so suddenly and I do hope you understand. It’s that somethings don’t work out anymore as something a person does and I think that is art for me right now.

Oh no please don’t stop Art please, I felt like that before I found that improvement doesn’t matter, it more is the emotional way it makes you feel, there are tons of cute things about your art, it cute, uniqe and so you galaxy please don’t give up art, please don’t, please, your art is so petty and uniqe it’s just galaxy and no one can replicate that galaxy, this style is you and you only. Even though it feels like a chore your feeling galaxy will move on and become greater in the road ahead,

I don’t know what else to say but please, please don’t stop Art. It it what makes you you and that would be taking away a part of yourself, I would say take a break for a month or so and then come back to it, I have also learned that art helps me express how I’m feeling or just to help get my emotions through and into something

Please don’t stop Art galaxy

Hi Galaxy!

I really do feel that though,, I can relate to a lot of what you're going through right now.

My suggestion is only draw what you like, and try not to compare to other people. It's hard, but it's a lot better feeling when you do, and if you really don't feel like drawing, then don't. Take a break. Sometimes taking a break is healthy, even if it's for a day, or a year. We all love seeing your art pop up in our feeds, but you don't need to feel obligated to draw.

If you don't feel like drawing, then don't, and wait for the motivation to come back. If it doesn't then well, there are other hobbies out there if you don't feel like art is your thing!^^

Sorry if this comes off as rude,,, I don't mean it that way!! :] -Fangs

i completely understand, please take as much time you need to relax. don't feel pressured to keep putting stuff out, i've been there, trust me; it's an awful feeling and you're gonna get burned out really fast. i will ALWAYS support you!! my advice, if you still wish to continue art, is to just take some time to yourself. maybe try sketching or drawing traditionally every so often for your own enjoyment, and, for god's sake, don't focus too much on it. making random doodles or just funny little things to keep to yourself are a fantastic remedy for lack of passion. i hope that made sense. either way, please know that you can do whatever you want and that you should NOT feel pressured to do anything - it's your choice in the end.

sending you lots of virtual hugs, please do whatever you think is right. <3333

Aah sorry that you are feeling that way about your art right now. Everyone above made so many good points, you should definitely take a break, however long you feel that it needs to be, and then see if you get that urge to draw back again at some point. I had to slow down to one drawing every few days because i realized that i was also slowly burning myself out by going at it so hard.

I was just checking out your gallery and it looks like you only just recently started drawing. If one of your goals is improvement, please know that this is a gradual process that often takes some time to develop, and you may not even notice it, but others definitely will be able to tell. <3

I agree though definitely do what you feel is best for ya. <3

Ya I’ve been doing traditional art for as long as I can remember and I just recently got into digital art. It’s a ton to think about but I appreciate your advice and kind words.
