Around.

Wed Dec 3, 2008, 1:56 AM
Not dead. Yeah, I know it's been over a year. Just drawing on and off (mostly off), more sketching, nothing finished. Napkins and notebook paper, mostly. My high school art teacher wouldn't be too happy *smiles*

I'm frustrated at how inconsistent my imagination is. Not just sometimes, or most of the time, but ALL of the time. I've started many things, from drawings (I still have a gift drawing in the works for a friend...a VERY patient friend) to projects (something called "Discontinuum", as well as a species for an RP group I'm in). I get flashes of inspiration that border on obsession for a period of two days to a week, then it's like writer's block, or going into an artistic coma, for months afterward. I can't think, I don't practice, I don't do anything.

This is why I haven't tried making a career out of art. I don't want to have someone relying on me to finish something and end up letting them down. Plus I can't help comparing myself to those already making a career out of art. Somehow, doesn't matter how bad they are, it feels like they're better at it than me.

Drives me crazy. So I try not to pay attention to it, which probably isn't a good thing because it means I'm not FIXING it.

And I don't know how.

I'll try something when I'm over this cold. Any suggestions? I'm open to random things at this point...

  • Mood: Unhappy
  • Listening to: Whatever's next on my iPod.
  • Watching: Bones, Fringe, Heroes, those one-word shows.
  • Playing: WoW (haven't gotten WotLK yet. But soon...)
