Why do I have an Art Block issue ?


After spending more than half of my life in painting, I did not expect that I would suffer from Art Block, even though I made drawing a source of livelihood and became my main business


It is not easy to return after a long absence, especially in light of the continuous work and lack of free time, but with the start of the home quarantine that lasts for weeks, I can now find enough time to practice my favorite hobby, which is making anime.


But even so, I may find it difficult to continue with the many things that distract me around me. I might interrupt my work to watch a movie, or complete my series, or maybe I stop early to play sports, and then I will not be able to return. Not only that, there is something worse, which is "boredom." "From work, I am a person who gets bored quickly, and I do not have the eagerness and enthusiasm for work much, so I always stop in the middle of the road and I am making an anime movie, or drawing a manga page, this matter tires me, although I love anime and I like to create a lot and have the capabilities and Energy for that, but the art block, or boredom of art "as I like to call it," doesn't allow me to do that, so I might spend hours on YouTube, instead of painting.



If I compare myself now with when I was young, I find that at that time I was always eager to draw, draw at school and at home, and I never hoped for a day, and I was the only one awake until the end of the night while I was drawing without stopping, but now I became the first to get bored and sleep !


We are illustrators, although we have the talent of drawing, the motivation does not last, and we go through states of "despair" from drawing, or completing what we started with, and this is the reason for my failure in my channel, and the reason for not completing films and stories that I had already started with.


And the best temporary solution for that is anime scenes for a certain period, or people who draw, until I get excited and get excited like them. My psychological treatment has always been the views of the Spacetoon anime that I was raised on, like the sniper, for example, who gives me a huge "anime" dose that makes me stand up, open the device and draw .


I am now working on an anime movie, and I have finished 6 scenes, and I will continue, I want everyone to see what I love, and what I do, despite the boredom that I always have, and I promise myself that I will continue for what I always love, which is drawing and anime And I will do my best to finish everything I have started!
