So last month or so I've been trying to power through an art block. No I'm not shutting down or anything it's more an over all dissatisfaction with my quality. It happens maybe once or twice a year, often brought on by stress or just my over all craving something I lack.

Reality is I'm not an artist that retains knowledge or skill.
I'm kind of envious of other artists that seem to retain these.. I just don't.
It's also hard to make time for art that is intended for skill sharping as to me I think this is probably boring as shit to look at. So it cycles into feeling guilty about not being able to retain my skill sets and that doing art that helps it is boring to look at.


Also doesn't help my cat Tatya(the floofy Himalayan) health fluctuates from really bad to some what stable. If you follow my twitter I often am bringing up this test or that test. Last tests to screen her for gastrointestinal diseases came back normal, it really was what we thought she had. My cat was over 3kilos dropped to 2.7 if she wasn't a long hair she would just be a walking skeleton of a cat.
Now she is stable but I have to feed her 5 times a day, it's not putting food down I have to spoon feeding her.
I've been doing this for a few weeks now which aside from the time it takes, it's better than weekly vet trips that have been going on since the summer. In the back of my head I also know she can just have a bad week and we can loose the progress we made in weight.

BUT she's been active again, her weight is up but yah no idea why as every test comes back normal.

Also my 15 year old cat Tora(the obnoxious black cat) came down with a cold and lost weight so we think her thyroid medication needs to be upped. She has hyper thyroid and the start of kidney failure.  We'll wait on her blood work till she's off antibiotics. It's hard for me to accept her age, she's been my friend for so long.

I will power through this, I swear it will be more than just sketch boring people, so if you made it through this diatribe please recommend more animals real of fantasy to draw.

I don't find anything you do boring, and I'm sorry your kitties are having a rough go of it. Love and light to you and yours <3 As for animal suggestions, I agree with the winter theme, so maybe along with reindeer a polar bear or penguin?

Well, holiday season is here, so wintery animals or reindeer might be fun!

Thanks, I have a hard time talking about stress as I'm the type I like to deal with it than dwell on it. But I'd like to be open with Patreons as you guys are supporting my creative endeavors. Ooo jackalope that's a good suggestion! :D

Not boring at all, and thank you for the update on your furs.

When life kicks us, it really tends to overflow the bad. I hope there’s some answers for your Tatya stays at a good weight! It sounds like you’re making good progress there. ❤️ A fantasy animal to draw - jackalope!
