Description
Got a bit heated with the clouds tbh, but after trying and trying I finally called it quits after spending 3 fucking hours on this thing. So I'm good hahaJust a scene study, not much else to talk about...
... I like sunsets and stars... and trees... and cliffs... and far away scenes........................
I might actually be proud of this what
I'm gonna start studying backgrounds more to get better at them since I've gotten reference sheets pretty down (I'm still working on those tbh, I'm just at a loss for motivation ASDKJHAKSJDHAS)
Also this will be so I can actually start creating scenes again, because I lost a lot of motivation and confidence when drawing backgrounds. I'd get sloppy, lose patience, and just overall call it quits... I'm trying to get more patient with drawing, because an average sitting I can have patience for is an hour. I think this is progress because I sat for 3 fucking hours working on this... 3x my usual patience span... so yeah
Personal note: The grass just about killed me to do, the tree was fun, I fucking hated drawing the cloud, I enjoyed experimenting overall... will continue studying scenes. Backgrounds are lacking in my drawings, will change this at a later date.
Art belongs to me

This looks so epic! I love sunsets and the mood they bring uwu I've tried my luck with a background sunset for my laptop a couple of weeks back and this was the result: Sunset Ay
Β but yours looks sooooo much cooler! the tree and cliffs are an awesome contrast to the clouds and sky ;3

Aaa thank you!! And yeah, I've always been a sucker for sunsets myself haha
Also I really like your take on sunsets tbh, the soft colors and brush strokes really bring out the beauty of the sun in that picture you did! I especially like the little trees scattered about and the river going away towards the horizon! Simple, but really has a big impact!
And thank you haha, I'm kind of a weirdo when it comes to like, over-the-top fantasy pictures XD
If I want a cliff/floating island with a tree I'm going to make it like, as epic as my art style can possibly make it AJKSDHAKJDHA
And thank you so much dude, I am kinda proud of this since it's like, my first serious attempt at scenery pffff

I most of the time lack the skills or time to draw very creative sceneries, so it usually boils down to something like this ^^' Buut I'm always impressed to see your super creative projects :3

Oo, this looks nice! I love how textured and shiny the clouds are! The rocks/floating island looks well lit, that tree looks like it is having the time of its life, and that grass looks like it was pure torture to draw in Β
π: 0 β©: 1
Thank you!! I tried waaaaay too hard with this entire thing XD
And yeah, the grass wasΒ pure torture ;w;
I need to find new methods to draw but with new methods comes experimentation! ^-^
π: 0 β©: 1
Yess! Experimentation! I like to watch speedpaints from popular artists and see how they do their grass and stuff, I got my eye style from that. Have you tried that? Β
π: 0 β©: 1
Me too! That is also how I got my eye style! Unfortunately I don't have a lot of patience when it comes to scenery so it's really hard to watch speedpaints and the sort, but I'm trying! XD
This is probably my first "serious" attempt at scenery so!

Yeah, me neither. Unless there is commentary describing what they are doing, then I'll be able to kinda pay attention to what they are doing. I actually got a playlist and fav folder where I put a garbage ton of tutorials and art videos. I just can't seem to go into those resources all the time, I want to improve, but for some reason, my (logical, yea right...) part of my brain says the best way to improve in art is by forgetting the existence of all the resources I've gathered and go mope.Β Β

Oh damn I feel that on a personal level omg
I've been trying my hardest to break from my old habits and boy is it hard. I can't give in once otherwise I'm back to square one.
I've managed to build a decent little foundation with breaking old habits (as seen through studies, that sketch request thing I'm doing, and so on to help motivate me to break free from my habits) I just hope it holds long enough for it to get easier
Sorry if that doesn't make sense! I've started trying to describe stuff to people in legit metaphors because I don't know how else to properly describe things AJSDHKASJHDA
but yeah... I just wish there was an easier way to go about art XDΒ
the struggle is real
π: 0 β©: 1
Explaining things is just sooo hard, that is why I sometimes speak in analogies. When I feel unmotivated to draw or improve, I feel as if there are just these bricks on my back. These bricks just make me feel so lazy/sad/ded, and I usually watch youtube to feel better(makes me lazier). And when I feel really motivated, I feel like running around like a maniac because that bricky weight is gone. But then, if I fail or don't do as well as I hoped in one try(always), the bricks will grow/fall back onto my back? Motivation is just so hard to find and keep.Β
Actually, this also sounds like everything else in my life. Like random projects I do, homework, studying. I usually get the motivation to do those by somehow saying "Bruh, do or die" and finishing the task on the day before it is due. This somehow works for schoolwork because I know it will affect my future, but art is more of something I wanna pursue in the future but I have countless doubts about it, and want to maybe keep it as a hobby rather than a career choice. I don't put too much coercion(is this the right word?) into improving art probably because I don't know if that effort will be worth it.

Oh man, that makes total sense though.
I actually had this issue a while back and I realized it was linked with depression (I didn't know I had it at the time, but now that I am aware of it my motivation has begun to come back) and ever since I spoke with a counselor expressing my concerns she explained to me that depression is one of the biggest problems a lot of people have to deal with and don't know they have, they think that they just don't ever have any motivation.
The whole doing stuff the day before the due date is totally me. I always put stuff off because "I don't want to deal with it" or "it stresses me out too easily" or even "why the hell should I do it anyways?" and things like that. Your issue might not be related to depression, but it also might be. I don't want to go around diagnosing people with stuff because I'm far from a doctor, but it's always safe to check and ask about it.Β
And I understand art can get frustrating at times or boring or even too much to handle. A lot of the time when I need to escape, or take my mind off of something, I always turn to art, even if I don't want to. And I find that sometimes forcing myself to draw even when it seems the most inconvenient, it always helps me get back into it and helps me realize that I can be better and do things. Just having the power to sit myself down and stare at my drawing tablet puts me in a place that makes me feel... motivated.
I hope that makes sense, and heck sorry for the long ass message XD I get wordy sometimes

Haha, that's fine. Talking/typing things out really do give u a sense of peace, it feels so nice to let stuff out.Β Β
But we somehow went from grass(that sounds wrong...) to motivation and life, we should crown ourselves pro conversationalists, lol.
I'm not really sure if I have depression, but maybe? I just try not to dwell on too many things, and I don't seem to have any of the symptoms(not that strongly). My parents always tell me that if I feel upset/unmotivated about something I should just work harder to not feel upset about it? My parents always tell me to get over something, you just need to do something about it yourself. I oftentimes questioned them because I thought "Obviously that doesn't work with everyone". I do heed to their advice becuz I had nothing better to do, and I haven't gotten better or worse? I'm not sure if the method I'm using is working, but it isn't really failing me either. And I can't really force myself to draw if I feel unmotivated. When I draw I like to have some podcast/documentary/youtube video by my side as I draw. When I do this, I can pinpoint when I don't have the motivation to draw because I always feel dull about something, and I am not sure if I am lacking art motivation rather than other motivation.Β
IDK where I'm going with that paragraph above

Ikr? The power of conversation is ... powerful LOL
And as for getting over something, there are some things that I simply can't get over. Like, real talk, I'm still suffering from heartbreak that happened over a year ago. Those things are hard to get over and sometimes we needΒ to dwell on things to understand why we feel the way we do. Instead of "getting over it" I've learned to accept it and mold it.
I have a hard time trusting guys or crushing on them because of this (I'm just using the heartbreak as an example because Idk what else to use asjdHKAJDSH) but I've learned to accept the fact that "hey, there are some sucky people out there, I'd rather not ever see said guy ever again, but I'll look at everything I've done and interacted with him as an experience. Something to learn from and be prepared for the next time something happens.Β
So getting back to your art, and feelings of no motivation, try to find the source. It may not be what you expect. Accept the fact you have no motivation. Don't try to fight it and figure out where the motivation is being channeled to and why it isn't towards your art. (Sorry I'm getting really philosophical here AJSKDHKS) That's all I really have to say tbh Idk how to help I'm not very helpful ;w;
And it's alright, tangents are sometimes the best types of conversation in my opinion X3
I really hope that I am able to help in some way at least, maybe to try and look at motivation from a different angle?

Alright, I'll try
tho, I think I may somehow lose motivation in doing that too? Heh, life is tough...
And yea, there are some sucky people out there. The internet showed me that tons of times, maybe that is why I'm so pessimistic(I watch a lot of sad stuff and remember a lot of sad stuff)?
I watch way too many youtube videos where all these different and difficult situations happen to these real people, and I'd usually think of what I would do in these kinds of situations(Learn from other's experience I think). Tho I'm not certain they may happen to me, good to be prepared tho?Β
Anyways, nice talk we had Β Β
π: 0 β©: 1
That is a BIG mood tbh
And I guess it's good to be prepared! But just remember that revolving around potentially negative things can start to make an emphasis on your life style. It's good to watch some fun/funny things on occasion!Β
And yeah! It was a nice talk, I don't get to talk that far in depth very often and it was kinda refreshing
