@edn's post on Artfol

edit: whoa so many people commented on this one, i guess i am finally being hashtag relatable, but thanks everyone for the advices!! you are all very nice ^_^

does this happen to anyone else? sometimes i feel like i just...forget how to draw. it's happening right now. and no matter how hard i try it just doesn't work... not in an artblock way either, i do want to draw and have ideas. it just feels like i have lost the skill.

oh well it will come back eventually -_- i suspect it might be caused by the weakness i'm experiencing from anemia so please bear with me :')

Yeah it's another kind of artblock, my recommendation it's to draw something that doesn't involve structure, like a night sky or a landscape
I honestly take that as a form of improvement because I feel like after a while we can actually start knowing what we don’t know if that makes sense? I’d say this is the best time to do technical practices because it feels super satisfying to do so at times like this
Ughh I hate when that happens, take your time! I usually look up references for what I want to draw and see if that helps but if not I just take a break, it's good to take things slow especially when you're not feeling well ☺️
ugh yes
allllll the time. it's tiring. I know what i wanna draw but it just. doesnt. work. it's really annoying.

but apparently it's also artblock ? or it also means you need a break. I struggle too much with it and everytime it happens i just stop drawing for a few days, or learn something new !
That is also another kind of artblock! Hope it shorts itself out soon tho! good luck with it mate! you got this :D
