I Hate Art >_>

Sun Jul 12, 2009, 5:14 AM

So, apparently I've now forgotten how to draw. -_-

No idea how, but I just can't remember how to draw anything. Even when I try to draw really simple poses, and use tons of refs, I can't figure out where anything is meant to go. It's really weird, and I've never had anythign like this happen before. .__o;

I've tried just drawing tons and hoping I can figure it out, but it's not working. D:
This is really starting to get frustrating, cause I have tons of drawing ideas I want to start, and I was finally starting to get good at art again. :/

Why is my ability to draw so hit and miss? x.x

I've got an idea!
You seem to be turning into me, with no idea how to draw simple shit.
So draw crazy shit.

Artblock? Caffeine overdose? Or simply, Waifer-Itus. It's infections and caught from me; hence my somewhat crappy art skills.

I had that a few months ago. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many idea's and i couldn't put a single one on paper. I just stopped drawing for a coupleof days then worked on somewthing simple. Then i exercised it more by drawing harder things. Now i can draw pretty well again.
(crappy in the case of an artist XP)

I've had this happen before. I feel your pain. D:

Try the whole automatic drawing thing. Psychic automatism and all, you just draw without putting any thought into it, so it's like an expression of the subconscious and thus it doesn;t matter what it looks like! 8D
But yeah. Essentially what Hin said. xD
