Alright, so here's the jist guys. I've been really involved in so many other things than just drawing for this whole past month. I'll admit, I've only tried 3 or 4 times to get something drawn and done and I haven't amounted myself to doing it at all. I've only managed to do a little bit of lineart that took me maybe 45 minutes or an hour. Don't get me wrong, I definitely love to draw, but my motivation is just down the drain. It's not an art block, it's quite the opposite. I know what I want to draw, just actually doing it is really becoming a pain for me to do because there's so many other things that I want to do that aren't as time inducing and are easier to do.
I've been really into video games for the past month to the point where've I've been on reddit a whole lot, I'm on Youtube just as much as I was before, but concentrating more on gaming news and whatnot, I've been playing Majora's Mask a whole lot and I'm just so close to beating it, and I've been really invested in Super Smash Bros Melee because there is still a community based around the game and it's still played competitively. There even a big tournament going on today that I'm going to watch soon.
It's like a new passion that has rather overridden my passion for drawing, which I know I can't help but feel guilty about. Even in a lot of downtime, I still don't manage to draw and instead I play more video games or practice more on Melee or look up strategies and methods, etc. I feel like I should just ride this wave and see where it takes me, I certainly don't want to force anything, but at the same time, I'll still keep artwork at the back of my mind, and who knows? Maybe once school is for good out, I'll be more motivated to draw. At least, I'm pretty sure that's what happened last year.
So, in all, I'm rather sorry I'm not one of those people that doesn't have a new drawing every week, and I know that was one of my goals, but I'm just not as passionate about drawings video game related things or even anything at all, and I'm more passionate about playing video games and interacting with other people about it, and meeting people in real life who have the same passion as me when it comes to Melee. It feels great! I really don't want to take any of my watchers for granted, just know that this is a slow time for my artwork and I am positive that I will get back in the game once the summer seriously kicks off for me.
Thanks for reading~!
