Creative Crisis

If you all would humor me for a bit while I spill some thoughts about things....I would like some input if you can provide it.

TL;DR: Creative and existential crisis as an artist has plagued me for years now, along with shame and anxiety despite feeling confident in the stories themselves, and at this point, I'm desperate for an answer that will help me move past it. More info below:

It feels like for the past 4 or 5 years, I've been going in and out of this existential crisis of being an artist, and my relationship with art and creating has been shattered. Every time I feel like I'm making headway, I'm back at square 1, and I can't create with the same amount of excitement and love like I used to prior to 2017.

And it sucks. Drawing and creating has been a part of my identity my entire life, and it feels like something broke in the last few years that I don't know how to repair. Therapy, trying other mediums, going outside, finding inspiration, forcing myself to do it, none of it seems to work.

I feel like a combination of things destroyed it: pandemic, IRL stuff, online stuff, and seeing how the internet as a whole treats art and artists nowadays is just discouraging as all hell. Almost makes me wonder what's the point anymore, I feel kinda jaded in art. I almost hate it.

The weird part is that I can still make stories, I found my confidence again in the art of storytelling, and was SUPER excited to draw all the Elegy stuff I wanted without filters and shit, but the drive to do the art is sorely under powered. Almost makes me wanna give up drawing.

I would say that it is probably the sleep deprivation talking, but it's been going on for so long that I'm actually considering it. I've just been playing games to numb the creative crisis.

If you've been in this state before and have gotten out of it, how? How do you do it? How do you get past the shame and anxiety of drawing and creating and showing off?

Y'all have no idea how desperate I am for answers. Realistically, I don't want to give up drawing, and a deep part of me still holds love in the act of drawing, but...something is broken, I don't know what...

So...I guess I'm grasping for straws here but...I need help from anyone willing.

#vent post #creative crisis #I just want to draw again without going through an entire circus act to do so #I'm wrecking my mind just for something....#I apologize for the silence once more despite saying I would try to be more active :c

Hey guys, if you noticed I deleted my post with sketch about Haruh’ta clan. I don’t know if I want to draw predator or not, or something else that people like it (shipping between me/oc with tmnt character, one of character, and etc). I think maybe yautja that I created are not interesting or not fearful enough. I really need your advice.

Pls help (╥_╥)

Prompt #263

"No." Villain whipped away so they couldn't see the electricity whirring behind Hero's exposed eye sockets. The do-gooder had looked really rough after their fight with Supervillain today, and Villain had thought it would be sweet to sneak into the agency dorms to patch them up. But they hadn't expected...this. "This is a lie. A trick. You're a fake. The agency is trying to screw with my head!"

"Villain," Hero begged, reaching out the metallic fingers of one stripped hand.

"You're just a copy!"

"Yes, I am a copy. In looks and in powers, I am Hero. But I am also me. I am also the person you fell in love with."

Villain shook their head rapidly. "I've seen Hero bleed. Hero is human."

"Hero is dead."

Villain's stomach lurched, and they whirled on the robotic fraud standing in their lover's place.

"Has been for years," Not-Hero said. "You never knew them. You saw them on TV sure, and they saved you that one time all those years ago. But everything else. The talks, the dates, the kisses. That was me."

" Is it alright to cling to you? To invent meaning where it is absent? I fear my words won’t grow up with me, still scuffing their knees on cement. I can welcome a lie when it's blinding, But I can’t write like a poet while blinking. I can’t draw like an artist without hiding. I can’t live right now without thinking. "

-words, by me.

#just thinking about the role of 'creatives' during crisis #having to go on during a climate crisis and a pandemic and a genocide #recognising the rot in the system and just having to really come to terms with how far it goes #how do you create in the midst of so much suffering?#my heart just aches #one day palestinians will be free to live in peace on their own land.#free palestine #ceasefire now #i hope this doesnt come off as self indulgent. or attention seeking #i just needed to scream into a pillow #but in saying that.#perhaps a delete later.

I always wanted to draw my fursona like an art from the Werewolf - The Apocalypse book: hyperrealistic and savage. But everything I draw ends up cartoonish and my werewolf looks like a Willie Coyote ripoff. And I felt like crap.

But this year, finally, I think I'm starting to come to terms with my own style. My art is really cartoonish (I'm deeply influenced by the 70's underground cartoon), and yes, my werewolf looks like a ragged generic Warner coyote. And that's okay.

i think i got accepted into the 2D animation class at my university #win #success #awesome

#talks #all of my other classes this semester are kind of boring. we kind of got the worst professors/teachers for every class too lmfao #our first semester teachers were so passionate about their job and now we only have teachers who have the personality of a cardboard box.#i really looked forward to illustration but our first seminar yesterday was a huge disappointment #and i'm lowkey trying not to have a crisis about it lol.... it's not even the class. it's the teacher & the way he chooses to teach us #which is just. sketching from real life. realistically. no room for creativity whatsoever. WE WONT EVEN HAVE A FINAL PROJECT #i'm mad about it because the other groups who had illustration last semester had assignments that sounded really fun #illustration class is the reason why i chose to study here in the first place.... and we got a teacher who doesn't gaf about it. grrrrr #anyways. i'm hyped about 2D animation!! it's the only class i really look forward to :D

Sephi could actually experience a Ghibli movie if they let him go here!

Petting the dog under the blossoming trees 🥰

May I just say, Rosen’s home is one of the most beautiful locations we have seen in FF7.

Locations like the City of the Ancients and Banora were all beautiful and many of the Rebirth areas are surely going to be wonderous

But this island of Sijad in FS reminds me of some of Japan’s most famous sakura spots.

I want Miniroth to come and see this. I can’t believe he would have seen such pretty nature in his lifetime. This little story ought to be separated from mobile format one day.

Bonus:

Why did they translate Glenn saying “doggo” like that 😂

He is a Zoomer in 1992 lol.

#i am going back through these chapters for analysis #i have to translate some scenes as well #but these details are actually making me feel even sadder about this story being only mobile #it has a lot of heart and creativity that is being restricted by mobile limitations #the first soldier #ff7ec #ever crisis #sephiroth #ff7 #final fantasy 7 #ffvii #ffvii first soldier #glenn lodbrok #rosen
