I've realized I've been striving to get better, doing studies and learning as much as I can. Not because I really love it, rather I just want to get better. I don't have a love for drawing that allows me to go for 24/7 and I wonder if I'll be able to catch up to those who can draw nonstop and love it every step of the way. I'm starting to get burnt out and get distracted easily now as well which doesn't feel good

Good taste. I sometimes wonder how much I want to get better because while I do, that feeling isn't so strong that it stops me from doing anything else. I have too much control, got to learn how to let loose like you, OP.

Feeling that way is pretty normal. But it sounds like you're plateauing/dipping in the mastery curve. Maybe you just need something to stimulate the next spike in improvement.

I don't get it, if you don't have a love for drawing and you just want to get good for the sake of getting good then it's pretty alarming and you should reconsider your career. If you're just burnt out from practicing then it's normal, take a small break and do something for fun trying to apply what you learned.

To be honest I'm not sure, I don't hate drawing, but it seems that I've forgotten why I love drawing, maybe it's all the studies and analyzing that's taking a toll

look back to pieces that you remember being proud of, or that you felt good about when you were making it. there might be something there. have you tried drawing something self indulgent lately?

Seeing my old work is just making me cringe pretty hard. Yeah I've been meaning to draw something I wanted to try drawing. Will prob do that for a bit to see if I feel any better

wow

Maybe you're just burned out. Take a break from all the practice and get in the mindset of no-stress drawing for a while, go outside and draw a bunch of trees, it always works for me
