Hello to everyone that watches me. I'm not dead or not disappearing from furry arts or anything of that nature. I've been kinda stuck in this big artist block/ lack of motivation probably since late January or early February. For the short story of what is the cause of it, it's because around that time (and a couple months before that) I was having some issues in my relationship with my (then) girlfriend of almost 8 years and I was in the middle of developing a comic regarding us. At February 10th, our relationship was a wreck and we both decided it was best break up.
A month later and She and I are still friends and hold no hard feelings towards each other. I thought I was able to get over our break up because I wasn't crying, was able to go about my usual routine of work and home without halt, and interact with her and other people in my life like everything is fine. I wasn't emotionally unhinged over our relationship ending (except the night it happened because that hit me like a train and it hurt for a good few hours), and I figured I was over it. But I've noticed that anytime I thought about drawing and bust out the old pen and tablet, I felt more unmotivated and drawing felt exhausting. On top of that, any ideas that would usually pop into my head or when I asked my other Fox Box members for any ideas, I would draw a blank or be iffy about drawing any suggestions. For the most of it, I picked up games I haven't played in a good while and just dived into them in my free time.
I could either be overthinking it and maybe just dealing with a regular artist block or maybe it did affect me and its being expressed over my lack of drawing, I don't know. But what I do know is, the dread is leaving me now and I'm getting my motivation to draw back! I also don't plan to cancel the comic "From Heat to Flames," because I wanted to make and finish a comic and see what people thought and that I would continue improve and make more ideas
So I wanted to let people know that I will still be posting art and stuff, just won't be making a hasty return because of not just my own inner trial but also because I also plan to try to get myself back out there to hopefully find someone that I could strongly connect with (but I'm also not rushing my love life, I'll just go about it in steady stride like I always have).
