How do you guys get back on the horse after not drawing for a while?
Have you ever stopped for a period of time and found when you started back up you were considerably worse?
I recently moved, switched day jobs, started planning a bridal shower and have an assortment of other daily responsibilities that have gotten worse.
During this month I just haven't touched a pen and paper (except maybe once or twice) now I have a commission I need to do and it just looks like garbage.
I can't get back in the loop. How long is it going to take to make things feel right again?
How do you keep your brain on drawing all the time?

Ias? or las? what is that?
I would agree with the other poster, Las helped me keep drawing. However there were days when I just couldn't draw and started submitting any old crap that I just had to quit it. I think breaks are important, long breaks for the brain to rest and feel inspired again from visual food like movies.
But that's just me. Some people just really have the ethic to keep going (see the week 1s, unless they're cheating of course.)
I like to listen to art based podcasts if I start getting lazy.

Shit that manga gave me some real emotion.
I just got back on after not drawing for months. In some areas I'm worse, but I haven't lost as much as I thought I would. Now I'm just trying to get in the habit of drawing every day again, even if it sucks.
I stop drawing and binged smoked weed for 2 months and i gotta say, when I decided to sober up, my art was horse shit. However i just looked at other art on instagram and got motivated to get my shit together. Now its been 2 weeks of solid drawing and I'm better than I was before, its kinda like riding a bike i guess
