I'M BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!! Okay so honestly I have been very very inconsistent over the years with just disappearing for periods of time due to various things 😂 So it probably seemed pretty normal to most people.

But it felt different on my side, so I'm excited to be back in business. I took a month long hiatus! 31 days of not drawing digital art. Its not something I talk about on here? But I've been suffering from some serious long term Art Burnout for.... a really really long time. Long enough that I should've taken a break probably years ago. It finally got so bad that I could barely draw. I was scared to do it (cause it always looked "bad" in my eyes [i'll come back to that]) and doing it was exhausting and disheartening.

I talked it over with somebody and realized that the fear and anger and frustration I felt towards my own artwork was uh. Not Normal or Healthy. And I finally committed to taking a real break for once.

I still drew a little bit by hand? Traditional art has always felt like it has lower stakes for me (i don't often share it online, and sometimes I don't even share it with friends) so I did some of that when I felt like it. But Digital art was completely off the table.

I had put such an immense pressure on myself to make my digital art perfect, to make as much of it as quickly as possible to satisfy something. It wasn't fun anymore. I'm proud of what i've made over the years! But for a long time now the stuff I've been making was made while hating every second of making it. With some rare exceptions.

I hated my art! It was a combination of Perfectionism, taking in too many external expectations, and the burnout. If you hate doing something its kinda hard to love it even when you want too lol. It wasn't "Bad" in the sense that the quality was low and it was ugly! It was "Bad" in the sense that it was unhealthy for me to keep doing it at that point in time.

I'm glad to report though, that with my hiatus officially over as of Wednesday last week: I am once again. In Love. With doing art, and being an artist :)

I put off taking a break for years cause I was scared that taking a break would mean that I would never achieve all the things I wanted to do with art. I was scared it was a stupid and lazy thing to do that would mean I'd never achieve my dreams. And Also even though I kinda hated drawing, I also loved making art. Its a weird duality that I can't even really explain??? I hated it but I also loved it. I wanted it but I also wanted to run from it. It wasn't until I was more mature and had more clarity and insight (and unfortunately also until the problems got worse) that I was finally able to let go of those fears and just do it.

And I'm really really glad I did. It was everything I needed. And I hope to strike a better balance in the future with art. Taking more breaks when I need them, or just when other things have my attention like reading or Video games (Some star rail got played during this time xD)

From the outside things probably aren't going to be that different?? At this point I don't really have any sure plans to post anything I've been drawing since my Hiatus ended. I might or I might not xD I'm still a hobbyist artist taking things at her own pace, but I hope that it shows how much happier I am :)

Whumptober 2023 is being officially put to rest by this post btw! I was in major burnout when that event started, and I'm ready to just, move on from all the past expectations I'd shoved on my shoulders. If I feel like filling any of the prompts or going back to any of the ideas I'd come up for it I will! But I'm not going to worry about doing it unless the desire sets in. Thanks to everybody who's been so kind to me throughout my time on here as an artist! Ya'lls tags and screaming and kind words, the fanfic, the asks and the responses? Its been fantastic :) You guys have made me laugh, smile, and cry tears of joy. I hope from here that things only get better and sweeter! And if I have bad days again, that's okay too.

Here's to 2024 and whatever it may bring ya'll :D 🎉🎉✨✨🧡💜

Shout out to this post by @angst-is-love-angst-is-life for making me want to add this to the WTF series.

What did you think about the Pipeline Prison of Flash, was it reasonable or did it leave you feeling uncomfortable?

[hi-im-elli]

“fake it till you make it” but it’s the trope where an antagonist is pretending to “be good”/“do good” to gain the trust of the protagonist but eventually the antagonist starts to actually like the protagonist as a person & adopt the good traits that they see in them

even better, when the antagonist has to admit that they were just trying to befriend/be nice to/help the protagonist for their own selfish gain, the antagonist tries to convince them that the protagonist changed them and that “they aren’t like that anymore” but the trust that the protagonist had in the antagonist has evidently been destroyed

So...here it is. Wrote the first bit, drove across the state, visited some people... DID NOT tell them about what I've written. Bon appetit!

Seriously though. This week: the return of the Flash! He's taking center stage and he'd really rather not. We talk more about the "shape" or rather "sound" of time waves. Tim received some bad news prior to this chapter and is trying really hard not to let that affect his conduct. He's a semi-...well, not professional.

Read or don't. I appreciate you either way!

The parallels between Eobard's first time donning the Reverse Flash suit and his last are spectacular.

Here's the scene: You have a young 20 year old Wally facing off against Eobard Thawne. This was Eobard's first time travel adventure and he fully descended into madness. Eobard attempted to take over Barry's life but the Flash family stopped him. Enraged, Eobard took them all down one by one until it was just him and Wally left. It was a bloody showdown and an unfortunately placed pothole cost Wally critical seconds. Eobard was about to murder him when, out of nowhere, a bolt of lightning struck him. Wally thanked Barry, who had been dead for years at this point, and proceeded to kick Eobard's ass into the next century.

Then you have Eobard's last time as the Reverse Flash. Eobard had tried to take over Barry's life but the Flash family had stopped him. Enraged, Eobard sent the Rogues after them and went to go kill Barry once and for all. It was a bloody showdown between Thawne and Allen. Eobard got into Barry's head and shocked him with new information. Unfortunately, Barry's shock cost him valuable seconds and Eobard took that time to knock him down. Eobard was about to murder him when, out of nowhere, a bolt of lightning struck him. Barry could hear Wally, who had been missing for months and was halfway across the universe, and he made a promise to go find him.

I just think it's fantastic that Eobard's first and last time running went the exact same way. So much so that Eobard flipped out that it had happened again.

Not to mention Barry and Wally's love for each other in the form of strategically thrown lightning bolts that transcend life, death, and reality.

That bastard went out the same way he came in, being physically harmed by Barry and Wally's love for each other.
