Pet Peeve: The Undying

I have been in this raid before

I get tired everytime I try to get back to drawing. Two doodles and Iā€™m ready to sleep where ever, when ever. Great for when my sleeping issues come back, but not so nice for the art.

The word spinster is massively under used.

noun: spinster ; plural noun: spinsters

  1. an unmarried woman, typically an older woman beyond the usual age for marriage.

Canā€™t imagine why.

I really loved them myself! Just draw casually and for fun, and know that your drawings are amazing. :blush:

Thereā€™s enough barren spinsters in SW to fill the remainder of SMC and you know it.

Let the creative juices flow as and when. Donā€™t treat art as a job. Enjoy it, have fun with it and youā€™ll get back into a rhythm.

Same. Last time I touched a pen was in February.

I only draw, it seems, under extreme situations of boredomā€¦ I predict that the next time Iā€™ll ever draw again to ve during the month of September and October.

Lemme tell you thisā€¦ An artist, can be easily compared to a drug addict (Or Iā€™d personally compare it to when I was going to driving school) We need constant practice but we donā€™t necessarily see progress. We want to be told that what we did is good and then after that tell us the flaws and explain them (I for one dislike someone just telling me whatā€™s wrong with my drawingsā€¦ It demolishes my will to continue)ā€¦ We constantly compare ourselves to others and yes while we are aware of circumstances, sometimes it changes nothingā€¦ Itā€™s purely self flagellation.

In shortā€¦ To keep a hobbist artist goingnhe needs regular shots of praises and constructive criticism to want to improve and keep going.

I get the drawing feel. Luckily for myself it lasts 1-2 weeks tops before I spurt out 2343232 more drawings. I recently made a very simple looking masked OC and in one single day, I kid you not, I did fourteen drawings of them.

Peeve: forgetting to charge my phone and only discovering it when Iā€™m about to go outside.

For extra annoyance, sometimes it doesnā€™t emit a ā€œbattery lowā€ notification sound and I miss the point when it discharges completely.

Peeve: Not being able to do anything but RP due to laptop having deteriorated so much that it crashes constantly. And no, I canā€™t afford a new one at the moment due to financial situation.

There i was, went to bed early, only for 3 oā€™clock to roll around and I hear this god awful howl from my window ledge.

Sit up, grab the cat and put him on the floor because in my sleep addled mind I thought he was being sick, realise he isnā€™t so he jumps back onto the window ledge and starts growling, hissing and spitting.

I try to get a look at who heā€™s reacting so violently to, but its dark and I canā€™t see.

Takes ages to go back to sleep and now Iā€™m tired.

One word: Skinwalkers.

Okay but how do you feel about Skindancers?

I used to be all over drawing. Then I switched to writing. I get physically assaulted by writers block every three paragraphs, I swear.

Trying to get used to my Huion Kamvas tablet (A4 sized screen tablet, since that was actually affordable and usable in my desk space) andā€¦ I dunno, something is off. I had to muck about with settings to get the alignment with the pen working in CSP and now the lines feel very jaggedy andā€¦

I just struggle so, SO much to get back into drawing, and I miss it and I hate it and I have no one to talk to about over-draws or technique or anything. I keep seeing ā€˜Mutualsā€™ redraw challenges and stuff on twitter and its like ā€œYayā€¦ oh, yeah, thatā€™s never me.ā€

Dunno. Just had a really, really scummy week or so, where one thing after another goes wrong for me and the Mrs. Peeve: I just want a damn break for us, is that too much to ask?
