I don't know whether you mean this seriously or in a kinky way but I genuinely hope you're alright 😭

Sorry to hear that :c, and thank you for giving them a wonderful life so far as a part of your family, be kind to yourself in these rough times <3

2/2 and I'm like neck deep in the art trenches right now and things look muddy and off. I need more practice and since I have a break from uni for a bit, if you want free art and to help me out, drop a reference/character/idea for me to practice, only if it's okay if it end us looking off. Thankies

The way you said that once made me think of this interaction, I simply couldn't resist >w< many boops for the cute wolfo!

Yay! *boops* >w<

Can I boop? 👉👈

Absolutely adorable >w<, I feel the urge to boop zah cuteh

I think if you manage to see it as just another step you take towards your inevitable success and you reach your dreams that can help with motivation and in the end it is true :D! The road may not be linear but I know you got wonderful art in you to show the world, whenever you're ready >w<

As far as the feeling of loss, I kinda went through something similar lately, I stopped practicing for a while and it took a toll, but here I can say confidently that a mindset shift is the best advice! Instead of loss, view it as experience >w< as long as we pick up the pen again, we can't fail! <3

To be fair I'm probably the worst to give advice on this, as it happens to me a lot, I think most people on yt say things like "build a routine and set small goals" something like 10 minutes everyday, it can be boxes or exercises, things that don't require a vision or complex commitment
