are you taking a break from art? if so i completely support that and this might be a stupid question im sorry i just saw the asks about you missing drawing but can't find a post about it? i'm probably just being stupid i'm just confused sorry
also i love your art and if you are taking a break i'm willing to wait as long as you need!!! i'm sorry if any of this came across as rude i just needed clarification :')
eh, not on purpose or "officially" or anything, I just haven't been able to find the time or energy. starting college has taken a lot out of me mentally and physically and I haven't had much of a break since I got here. there are a lot of /good/ things about that change in my life too but whenever I get a break and I try to draw, I get exhausted very quickly and have to stop. the want to draw is there but the body disagrees, y'know?
it took until the point where I had gotten physically sick for me to realize I've been doing a little too much lately and could probably stand to make space in my life for fun stuff again. it feels a little like I've lost a major coping mechanism that I always used to rely on to enable me to slow down and unwind making something for myself. everything about my life right now is on a timescale that doesn't allow me to stop and breathe and just take my time on a drawing. but I want that to change because, uh, it's killing me a little. so, hopefully art will come sooner rather than later. I just can't say for sure right now!
