When you reach a point where you just make art for the outcome and public response, then something is wrong.
For me, I will take a big step back. Focus on the process again and draw what I like. Not what I think others will.
It sounds so obvious but so hard to achieve.

Can you draw...
Whatever the heck you like!? ❤️🧡💛
Now you’ve inspired me to create more for myself too XD
(I’ve been desperate to draw more full-fledged illustrations of my OC’s just for myself XD)

It definitely helps to take a step back though; learning new techniques and just having fun with the process. 🙏
That said I guess some times too much is... well, too much. Hope things will get better for you
Internet and trend nowadays are running too fast, and I can't keep up. Lately, I really having fun creating art for myself only.
Art is a great thing, and i am thankful that i can draw almost daily.
It remains art that i am still happy to draw and proud in.
Its a good balance that work for me. Hf drawing things you like. Its very liberating ❤️❤️
I enjoy both, but for some reason I set this expectation on myself to pump out content quicker than Im used to. I had to force myself to take my time, because I want to make something I can be proud of in the end, regardless of attention
It's important to make projects for yourself first, and have posting about them be the benefit that comes second. It's more fun
For anyone experiencing similar issues, find and do whatever works for you, and be sure that you're not hurting your own passion and drive in the process. Have fun with it, enjoy the process 👍
But the burnout is also very real. I need to take a break but then I feel bad for not drawing anything cuz I fear I'll lose the skill the longer I go without doing it...
But it's your art
And the joy it gives you is more worth it than anything else.
Love what you create. Create it for you.
I will wait until you come back the way you want, with your passion!(ㆁωㆁ)
But just my thoughts...remember those parts of you are still belonging and of YOU. YOU'RE the one in control, though. You take those useless or detrimental thoughts and you twist them until they submit and you tuck them back into place, serving YOU. 🖤
