@roseglow's post on Artfol

Aaaaaaa ! Why ?! I finally have all the time in the world to draw and I can’t even hold a pencil in my hand. I started taking a summer online course for artistic anatomy, and my brain is making it work in the opposite direction.
I want to draw, I have ideas for what to draw, but as soon as I place myself in front of a piece of paper I now start stressing and overly worriyng that it won’t look right, that I won’t be able to put to good use what I’ve been taught.
But how do I suppose that I’m going to actually improve if I’m not even training !!! Like thats the point. I’m still not that good, so I learn stuff, try to use it, fail, re-try and get better.
My rational part can’t understand my emotional one 🙃
