there are only two modes
When art is your only decent coping mechanism and when you don’t do Enough art you feel like shit because your output is intrinsically tied to your feelings of self worth and accomplishment
Some weeks I want to draw everything I see and sleeping seems like a waste because of all the art I want to do. Some weeks just picking up a pencil seems exhausting. But part of succeeding as an artist is coming to terms with being uninspired and learning how to work even when you’re seriously not in the zone. Remember it will come back; even if it feels like your talent and passion has gone away, it’s going to return again. It’s ok to feel burned out, and it doesn’t make you a failure. Rest when you need to, and keep pushing through.
