This type of thing happened to me a few months ago where everything I drew looked bad to me and I would just delete the drawing before I could even start to clean it up a little. But now I’ve felt way better about my art and draw a lot better than I did back then. I hope that you’ll eventually start to feel better about your art and enjoy drawing again because it makes me feel sad to see other artists not having fun or not feeling good about their art.

Je traverse parfois des périodes similaires avec ma musique. Et pour ce qui est de cette sensation de faire "pire qu'avant" Je pense que c'est juste psychologique et c'est en partie causé par cet infâme syndrome de l'imposteur. Comme on dit, "we are our own worst critic" mdr. Faut pas trop s'inquiéter, comme tu le dis c'est des phases. Je pense aussi que se comparer constamment aux autres peut nuire à soi-même ou à l'estime de soi.

Et perso ce qui m'aide un peu dans les moments où l'inspi et/ou la motivation manquent à l'appel, c'est tout simplement faire une pause et focus sur une autre activité en attendant.

Please don't be critical of yourself. It's ok to take a break from drawing, even if its a long time. I'm not good at giving advice, but please don't forget that we all enjoy everything that you post, even if its a small drawing or a finished artwork! :)

I think i just need to change my mindset about art. I hate working, but now i have to work, if i want to be pleased with my drawings

I need to be serious and to stop doing half assed sketches and calling it a day. I have to actually learn how to draw, using references, studying my fav artists, kicking impostor syndrome in the balls and stop whining

Its a phase. Peaks and valleys. The motivation comes with the fixation and attention, just try not to force it too hard and before you know it youll get the ITCH again. Just doodle a little creature a bunch of times or once a day to keep your drawing muscles alive until the fixation comes back. ADHD is a bitch!

You're in a phase where you need a breaks, you got worn out from your ideas

Best way to recover is either see some character references that can get your ideas back or completely break from art for maybe a while.
And remember, don't just draw one character bcoz that's the easiest, try to learn and draw other characters from any movies, art, games, etc, even if you hate it

what i do in these sorta situations is that i either take a break or just dump shit from my brain to put on the canvas for the funnies
it really doesnt matter too much just as long as you have fun you will start makin good art
the human brain is weird
in short stupid doodles have always worked as a cure for me :p
