THIS IS SUCH A HARD QUESTION TO ANSWER I’VE BEEN SITTING ON IT FOR HOURS. PREPARE FOR WORD BARF.

OK. SO. i try to make it a habit to draw something every week. At least one thing! Sometimes it’s a little doodle, sometimes it’s more complex, but I just try to have at least One Thing. And I’ve been doing it for so long now it’s just a thing I do now??? the same way you brush your teeth or wash your hair! (don’t do those only once a week. i mean. you get the picture) so now it’s kind of… if i don’t draw for a few days I just feel. weird??? i dunno?? it’s less about “draw because you love it” (although i do love it) and more about “train yourself to draw at regular intervals so you get into the habit of doing it”??? because sometimes it’s like. dang. i hate drawing actually. and then your love gauge is at 0 and what do you do then???

but yeah! I’m discouraged about my art all the time! Here’s a secret: I don’t like any of the drawings I’ve done these past few days. I’m in kind of in an art slump right now. But I have people who love my art anyways, and even better, don’t even notice I’m in an art slump! Because no one sees it, you’re the only one who does! And because I have people, and friends, who see my art and love it anyways!

but yeah, the way i stay positive is. because i have a support system??? close friends help a lot!!! i have friends who draw a lot as well, and it’s like. they draw, so they know how difficult it can be, so theyre always supportive, and they draw a lot, so it’s like, healthy competition??? “DANG they drew a lot of good things this week, im not gonna fall behind!!!”

felt sad today… so i doodled something important
