I like the idea that your sketchbook is like a story arc in some cartoon. You having no idea where to go in terms of your art, to suddenly seeing that answer by the help of some people is such a treat to read. I like sketchbooks like that, you speak out your mind instead of just saying a few words, leaving art, then leaving. It's like reading a biography.
I can relate with feeling uncomfortable about "starting over". For me, it's almost borderline patronizing to know that my basic techniques are shoddy and it needs work. It is hard to accept that we need to go back to the basics when we have already strayed so far from that level, but that is how things work I suppose. We can't afford to stay stagnant in our art like some people...
Welp, I hope you find a style that pleases you some day! Good luck!
