Art block is a
b***h. And I don't mean that in the way Rick James did, I can tell you. As far as I know, there isn't any way to get rid of it other than to just keep trying until the damned thing passes. Like a kidney stone with a personal vendetta.
I am suffering from art block. And the problem isn't that I can't think of what do draw -- that particular problem only applies to my writing -- but that I can't seem to draw anything that looks decent.
I mean, yeah, I have pretty high standards for my art. And I'm my own worst critic, no doubt about it. But this isn't some attack of self-deprication. This is my being unable to put down on paper what I see in my head. This is not being able to get the anatomy right, and that's supposed to be my strong point.
So I have all this crap to draw -- obligations, commissions, trades...not counting all the things I want to draw for my own sake. And I'm stuck drawing the same guy over and over and over again, wasting my eraser and mumbling under my breath.
Oy. Wish me luck.
