I'm very salty about everyone giving me the same advice for my art block as if I haven't already tried it. This really doesn't work for me, because my goal isn't to draw a bunch of cacti. I want to paint. I want to paint landscapes and faces, and hands and hair. I understand the goal is to get an artist out of a funk, but I'm not in a "funk" I don't lack motivation.
My art block is based on some pretty severe depression worsened since a death in my family, but the one thing I can say is that getting irritated about something is at least a feeling, other than emptiness and lack of hope that often strikes me down with the worst of my depression. I still feel hopeless and sort of helpless about my inability to paint, but I just get so tired every time I try. My body physically loses the ability to remain upright or keep my eyes open.
