anxiety + artist 

been posting a lot of this lately. sorry.

I'd like to find confidence and happiness in liking things I make. Outside of weekend streams I feel like all I do is fucking scribble garbage (and even for streams, I feel the art is subpar to my work a few months back)

Problem is I'm painfully aware every hour I spend moping, half-doing chores and just generally staring at an empty canvas is literal money out of my pocket. I don't want to be rich but I don't want to be broke.

oh hey. and the place I'm living currently just passed a law about bathrooms and I'm sure you already know.

Yay, even more reason for me to want to step outside of my rapidly shrinking comfort zone.

draw lots of cute/cool ideas floating in my head

what my brain does when I sit down to:

@Draekos *sends positivity* If tit helps, I think your art is really great honestly. You're one of the best artists I know.

@Draekos if _it_ helps, though I imagine tit helps too.
