I'm trying to end everything I start.
Even if it will be abandoned for half year or something. I'm still going to end it

Most of the time my unfinished artworks are sketches that I lost the motivation to finish or forgot to get back to! Sometimes out of guilt I try to finish the ones I lost motivation for, but end up dumping it altogether

I hope the guilty feeling goes away soon. I have an abundance of unfinished sketches and canvas open with just words that have inspired me. I like to look at them as if they are simmering/boiling or not all the ingredients have been retrieved yet. So for now it’s okkay to hold off until you feel inspired and know you have thought about it enough to portray it the way you want. And sometimes a couple of the sketches can be combined because of the similar concepts. Don’t worry about not finishing, it may just be apart of your system 
wish you the best on your art journey

I have a bunch I never finish, I work on what I'm motivated too. if I work on something I dont want too it wont turn out as nice

I do have some. Sometimes I've tried an idea multiple times in multiple ways and I just have to save it for later. I have several files labeled something along the lines of "finish"
I usually try to save them till I have a better idea of what I want or until I have the skill I need.

The same thing happens to me. I try to make something but then I realize that that something sucks, but it doesn't suck enough to say "oml I need to delete it immediately" so I just keep it and never return to it or adjust it

90% of my art rn is unfinished, abandoned in its sketch stage. I have a large problem with finishing stuff, I'll get around to fixing it eventually
•
i think half the art i do is unfinished because i just don’t feel i have the skill to complete or i get sick of it sometimes i try and finish old work but more often than not it just sits there
•
I have so many unfinished work that I left on my old laptop. 
Sometimes I also feel guilty for not finishing it, but at the same time I just enjoy what I'm currently working on and try not to think too much about it. I might decide to redraw after some time, and if not I just focus on new ideas.

I don’t finish stuff a lot, there are a lot of sketches in my MediBang library ._.

for every piece i complete, i have like 8 WIPs i've either meant to fnish but forgotten about, or just flat out abandoned entirely. 
i lose steam so quickly once i finish the aspects i enjoy doing.
