"Do I Truly Hate What I'm Working On? Or Am I Tired Of Looking At It And Need A Short Break?"

"Do I truly hate what I'm working on? Or am I tired of looking at it and need a short break?"

"Do I really hate my art-making process? Or have I been doing the same thing for too long?"

An important question I have to ask myself every once in a while is "do I actually hate [blank] or am I just bored of it?"

A digital sketch of the illustration A Gift. It's a mishmash of merged layers and colors overlaying one another.

Digital illustration depicting a humanoid woman handing a flower to a giant, horned spirit. The spirit holds out their hand to accept the offering from her.

Below this illustration reads: “Marit had a gift for the spirit!”

Found the original sketch for A Gift while rummaging through Procreate tonight.

(Including the finished version for comparison)

It would be fun to visually compare what others have assumed my art influences are vs. my actual inspirations.

Asking because I would like to make a playlist of new music to listen to while I'm at my university's ceramic studio this week.

By the way, if recommending an artist, suggesting a specific album or song(s) from them would be very helpful!

Without knowing my tastes, what music would you recommend to me based purely on vibes?

Digital art of two women gently holding onto one another. Both women are missing their faces. A reddish-orange tangled mass of organic material flows out from where their faces should be and connects them together.

My latest drawing fascination has been funky organic shapes. I need to figure out a way to incorporate them into my "typical" art (weird landscapes? flora? creature details?)
