*insert a quote about nature and technology living together in peace here*
Sooo anyway, this was supposed to be finished on Sunday, but I felt like crap for most of the week and had no motivation to do whatsoever. I think most of my frustration that I felt based on the level of my art was that I was focusing more on the quantity instead of the quality of my work (mostly because of social media), which is not something I have ever wanted, since it had caused me to not be satisfied with most of my artworks this year. I tried to mask it and mistakenly call it a rough looking ''artstyle'' but I just knew that I was letting myself go for my inability to stay focused on a piece to the level of finishing it, I was always way too quick at calling it ''good enough'' and moving on to something else. Don't get me wrong, sketching and doing quick artworks just to lay down your concept, or doodling small piece just for fun is great and helpful in some aspects, but doing it constantly every goddamn time without giving yourself the space to improve your rendering abilities and problem solving just isn't right. I wasn't giving myself enough time. I still enjoy rough looking pieces (and I'm still striving for that look, at least I think, I still don't really know tbh), but it took me way too much time to realize, that that style isn't achieved by rushing it, but by doing conscious decisions. I might never be satisfied with what I do, but for starters it might be good to look back at some pieces and just say, I did everything I could to make it look as good as possible. I know spending more time on a piece doesn't necessary mean it will be a better piece, but I think I'm lacking that time aspect in my artwork and I just need to bring back the oppressed detailist I locked away for my fear of over-rendering things. Okay, heart pouring is over, thanks for reading.
Have a nice day
