Holy astro-crap guys... I'd seriously like to thank each and every one of you for taking the time to write up ways to help overcome all of the frustration and art blocks! I tried basically everything you guys suggested and it worked. I don't I've had an art block/frustration field that bad before... so, really, thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me out!~
Fedodika - LOL WHAT? xD
Jaik - heya Jaik, haha thanks you-! That's super sweet of you! No worries, keep up the good work :)
LongJH - hey Junhong! *woot for a first name basis* haha :) thanks you! I totally agree, patience is key, patience is keeeey. Sometimes things just get the better of me :/ gotta carve that word in my desk or... forehead or something lol. Thanks again <:
Jonesoda - Jonesoda! Thank you for the awesome advice, definitely gonna try focussed studies if le frustrationés tries to get the better of me - and whoa cool, I'm going to try out new mediums sometime this week ~ haha and yep, walking is awesome! Getting back into walking an hour a day <: thanks man!
Bjulvar - haha and slow down I did! Good advice, Bjulllvaaar o/! It really is good to just take it slow once in a while to get those creative juices flowing again :) thanks again. P.s. epic song is eppiiiiiicccc, thanks for the share - got the brain cracking when I got back into it all today!
Elaeis - hey Elaeis, thank you! Yep, we've just gotta keep going and going, remembering to king hit negative thoughts in the faaaaaaceeee-!
kikindaface - when I read your post... I just... aaah :') yep, you're right about the high expectations part. That's where my frustration stems from. But thank you for putting everything into perspective... when you mentioned you need to be in the present... it's like something clicked. A lightbulb went off. I'm ALWAYS distracted when I attempt to paint something digitally. Like, always. ._. I can't thank you enough for this advice, +1 ! ^_^
Ignatz - I completely agree! That's been one of my biggest issues, since I started studying art at the beginning of this year, I managed to screw myself over by having a 80-20% study to imaginative regime. I psyched myself out, thinking I wasn't good enough to do personal pieces... I was in a "gotta study more" mentality, when in actual fact - I feel I'm learning so much more doing imaginative work than vice versa :/ thank you again!
matkaminski - thank you for the advice, mat! I tried out some of the things you suggested and they've helped me out a bunch! ^_^ still need to finish watching a shit-ton of vids on YouTube though haha, thanks again!
I'm BAAAACK! With a veng...placement stylus for my tablet :D
(finallylylylylly, holy shit!)
So I basically took a while off to find inspiration, let my mind wonder etc, to get out of that negative space I was in! Took a while, but I feel new again.
Mmm, so I have some stuffs...
Ooooh, I did have some more of that client work :D designed the pics for a charity organisation:
Some sketchbook pages
gotta practise lips and... bean bodies...
This wip sketch I started before bed:
20min spitpaint - I felt mellow doing this for once...
And this wip dude I spent the day on, taking my time, just relaxing and going with the flow...
I know, wtf is with the design? Idk. I really don't. :)
Wow... my first full post where everything was from imagination haha achievement-!
