I'm so sorry about that!!

Hi! Im a contemporary artschool student but I've been drawing/painting digitally (comic/illustration/ocs...) since I was 14. I have a couple tips for this one since I have gone through it sooooo many timeees 😩😩 I hope you don't mind I'm not qrbits!❣️❣️ First if all, change of style! Whenever I started going down that scary slump of being incapable of drawing not even a sketch, I always felt like I suddenlynhad lost a clear vision of what my art had to look like. It went away after a couple days/weeks, but it certainly felt horrible. After some years of ups and downs I realized most of these downfalls happened after having been too many times repeating a style that ended up burning me out / that I didn't quite like. Now, I know it sounds confusing, but it is in fact the most common root of this feeling of not being able to draw. The first huge art slump I ever had was right after indirectly having forced myself to draw in a very manga-like language for two years straight. My entire surroundings drew like that and I felt like I had to too, but after more months being with these ups and downs it turned out what I truly desired was a stylized realism look. Secondly: do try a completely different but creative task. I tried sewing, ceramics and oil paint. It made my mind forget about being stuck in digital art and even made me realize some of the textures and looks I had achieved with the traditional canvases were in fact what I had been trying to do with digital art unsuccessfully. Huge thumbs up, ngl😊😊 Third tip, and this is quite personal, since that 'artistic wall' that I felt I had stumbled upon was making me loose my love for the characters, stories and comic panels I had created up until that time. It's scary, you will leave behind some other ocs, but the ones you truly love will keep appearing in your mind 24/7. ❤❤ Hiting that wall will eventually make you sit down and analyze what's wrong, and it's probably the best thing you could ever do. It helped me to print out art from my fav artists from all different mediums and styles, glue t'hem down in my sketchbook and feraly annotate the pros, cons and things I really REALLY admire in the margins or even on top of the printed paper😊 It forced me to try and ,earn from 0 and really settle for the features that I admired and truly wanted to incorporate to my art. Not everything you admire means that you should draw too, just keep it in mind!! Hope it helps❤❤

@iamluyu Thank you for the response! Ngl, I think it might be a mix of some things and just my mental not being there. I definitely have issues with my art style when drawing specific things, so I'll definitely try to look at artists I admire some more. But I've also changed things about how I do digital art like sketching with a hard brush and using a bigger canvas and it feels like I'll never be used to these new changes no matter what I do. I'll try to do other forms of art but I can only hope digital becomes less of a fight one day 😅

No, I think it's open to everyone!

@@qrbitsart O OK thank uu!!
