I've been having a very difficult time painting or designing anything due to have an existential moment surrounding what the meaning behind my art is. I got caught up with wanting to have impressive and deep works like my inspirations such as Francis Bacon to only snowball into complete perfectionism along with stopping every piece I began.
After meeting new faces and viewing their art I realized that what's the point of keeping myself back from having fun, you know? I guess what also helped me was finally reaching some personal goals like getting a new puppy and reaching a proper T level (666 ironically enough) after starting HRT a year ago.
I plan on drawing much more and trying to improve my skills along with focusing on getting an art related job this year!
