art block theory

I'm art blocked right now and i wanted to share about it!

i have this theory that there's 3 kinds of art block (in terms of, like, drawing.)

#1- "cant draw" art block! its when you want to draw or have ideas, but you, like, physically cant. when you're having a bad art day, your hand wont cooperate and nothing is turning out as you'd imagined. (this is where i am right now, its a struggle.)

#2- "no motivation" art block! where you may have ideas or really want to draw, but just cant really bring yourself to. no motivation

#3- "no ideas" art block! you're very motivated to draw or maybe having a good art day, but you have no ideas and dont know what to draw!

aaaaaah they're all so frustrating! do any of you deal with these? which most often?

i am constantly #3 istg

i am in constant anguish and art block /hj

there's also a fourth one(in my opinion)- when you're just too fatigued to draw and stuff

also for the no ideas thing i reccommend finding drawing prompts and picking one, or finding one of those facial expression templates so you can draw your oc's facial expressions or just practice expressions in general :3
