Day 142. This has been one of the worst weeks in my entire life. I have never felt so alone, or pressured, or misunderstood. And every time Gabrielle Aplin sings, “How do you feel today?”, I can’t help but think she’s the only one who bothers to ask.
Day 134. I suppose the time has come to be honest. I have been in a massive art block ever since the beginning of April, and the pressure to make something good – particularly fan art, since that was my Chaos Walking month – every single day really got to me. I have never been so tired of trying to do something I love in my whole life, and it got to the point where I was questioning the very motives behind why I did art in the first place. That’s the reason why I haven’t been posting much… been trying to find myself, I guess.
Anyway, all that introspective nonsense aside (because let’s not get into it), the purpose of this 365 project is to be simple bits and pieces of my life told in art – what I ate, what I read, a random lyric or thought. Not every one of these pieces are going to be masterpieces, and certainly very few of them will be fan art because while I’m being honest here, I suck at drawing fan art and I need to accept that.
So this rambling post is to explain my art’s eventual slight shift in focus, and I hope you all will still like following me when I’m not doing anything particularly special or fan art-y. /end honest post
