ahhhhhh i remember why i dont read comics & books and watch movies as much as I should. Because they make me lose it

#i get suddenly hit with a tsunami of inspiration and an urgency to Make Something #but the urgency isn't about the process of making it's about I Have Stories To Present Too. I have to See Them Realized. #and that hit of urgency is obviously far too short lived to make anything. esp since it comes in a set with a feeling of 'wow this- #-thing was so great' that transforms into intensified perfectionism of No No What Im Doing Here Isnt Good. What Is This. Disgrace- #-to my idea AND to what inspired it AND to my self proclaimed status as an amateur storyteller #which turns into artblock. so like low chances that ill even get a singular good drawing made during this #and the multiple comic or script or whatever ideas that appear in my head during this are out of the question entirely #oh and all of this appears next to the normal feelings caused by a good story like attachment to the characters and having to process it- #-for a while and if its very good then even sometimes rarely i get the need to make fanart #so all of this combined just leads to me not being able to do anything for a while and feeling awful about it. #fun./sar #i wish i was a normal artist people here are so resilient and do stuff even though they dont want to or they DO want to #because idk they enjoy being pissed bcs of a thing not turning out right and they dont mind how tedious it can get- #-and they enjoy sacrificing hours&days&months of their lives without a guarantee that anyone will appreciate it accordingly and itll pay of #its probably the resilience though #im weak like a dried twig both mentally and physically #this sounds like i never enjoyed drawing&writing ever. and to clarify thats far from true. i frequently enjoy it #just never frequently enough and consistently enough to actually make something more 'worthwhile' or linear #it's like a wind that comes & goes that i have no control over. #i try to keep telling myself that in the past i struggled to make anything 'bigger'....& know i even made animatic shitposts #this sounds so stupid god. an animatic shitpost being an achievement. #its not an art skill achievement its a fighting tooth and nail with my own self to actually finish it because its a struggle almost every- #-time achievement #what im saying is im trying to tell myself that i already improved. im doing more than i could have done in the past. #even if the process is so slow and i dont know when ill advance again #if ill advance again. i just gotta believe i guess? thank u parappa

is it weird to say i sometimes feel like im making art *too* quickly and *too* often? like. i see fellow artists or friends complain about how long its taking them, how often they get artblock, how they dont have time to draw. like it feels *strange* to pump out multiple finished pieces a week like its nothing, and then open discord and i see my friend fighting tooth and nail with a singular (albeit very impressive and detailed) piece for weeks on end. yknow, stuff like fully rendered metals, fabrics, animals, faces. all in one thing. idk. sometimes feels like my art is *too* simple and *too* easy to make

#chess shh #its a weird feeling i dont know how to describe #because im always very very enthusiastic about drawing. but even when i was in art SCHOOL i was deemed the odd one out for always drawing #my friends are all surprised at how i finish sketchbooks in 3 months tops while they cant finish even one for years #i guess when i love a thing i do it all the time until i physically cant do it anymore. and. art happened to be one of them #but i dont want to liken it to a special interest (even if it probably is based on. everything about me and my room and my possessions) #it doesnt feel like its an interest. it feels like it IS me. #like. the grass is green. the sky is blue. and i am an art. i am art because i create art and then the art i create helps creating me #its just always been this way. and for SOME stupid reason i feel like a little cunty freak for always making art so much. always drawing. #i literally physically itch to draw. my hands get twitchy and jittery if i get an idea and for some reason cant draw it in that exact momen #anyways. imposter syndrome i guess. idk.

TAZ means a lot to me, and im still in shambles over the end ;w; I imagine after everything, Lucretia will have a new portrait to hang in her office!  Thanks for the adventure, Tres Horny Boys! I look forward to the next amazing story! 

#taz #the adventure zone #yabbyabb doodles #i had to fight tooth and nail against my artblock to make this #but it was necessary #it was my first time drawing a lot of these guys too! #im especially fond of how carey and killian came out #<33
