How has quarantine affected your usual habits?

Can be non-art related! Are you more of a night owl now? Or maybe you picked up a new hobby that you do everyday?

For me, I've actually been drawing less than before, but my style has definitely improved and I'm drawing digital art more than traditional!

Nothing much has changed for me in the passed 3 years since I've graduated . However, i did buy a banjo (because i love a specific game(s) so much lul)
I also started drawing less because I picked up new games that my previous job didn't give me time for
Hmm, I found a job in a school (I take care to 3-6yo childrens and I love it ☺️) because my interior architect activity has stopped 😕
And before quarantine (and covid more generally) I was used to go out to bars every friday evening, this is no longer possible now, I can't see my friends often, and that's maybe the most hard to live for me ^^"
But I've gotten more free time to draw, I can more work on portraits commissions, and that's cool 😜
I think quarantine is what made me start drawing. And I also got a job so that changed things
Honestly quarantine has completely changed my life. I used to commute to work 5 days a week. I haven't been to the office since early March last year. I work from home now, and instead of an hour and a half commute each day, I roll out of bed and basically start work 50 mins later.
I sleep a little more, and have managed to find time to read more and play more video games as I have a little less tiredness to deal with. Art wise, I can't even say I started using procreate more because I brought that in Jan last year... For my 2020 travel plans. But I guess spending all day working at my desk means I don't want to sit there for my hobby.
2021 has so far been my most creative since I was a teen. I feel like it's unrelated, bc I'm still struggling with the same energy issues I have for many years. But I also can't deny I've made more art in the last lockdown than I did in the years working my old job 🤷‍♀️.
Overall, I dont think my life has changed too much one way or another? But I do have more time not sat on public transport....
I would draw at school and study at home. Now I can't do anything 🙃
Im drawing so much more than before and i have started to exercise more than i used to
I got an ipad last year for christmas so I have been drawing A LOT in quarantine, and actually even before i got an ipad i started drawing so much more. I also started to recently post it on social media. But something not art related is that in quarantine i havent been exercising at all lol :')
thanks to quarantine i’ve been getting a lot more sleep :)
I have this bad habit of being super lazy, I cannot get off my couch. If I do, I complain😂 Other than that, I’ve gotten more free time to continue my hobbies! Same, I draw digital now than traditional, big achievement 🙌🏻
I've been drawing a lot less than usual sadly.
I’ve always been a crazy morning person. I just feel constantly bored even when doing anything
