My magic is gone...
Sorry for disappearing for a while. During the last two weeks my physical and moral condition was absolutely lousy, and I absolutely could not find inspiration to draw something worthwhile. I constantly tried, but the result disappointed me and sometimes it was difficult even to hold the stylus.
Break day did not help the situation. And in the end, even my finished art stopped liking me.
It's all a combination of factors that I'm not sure what to say.
But I feel that my artistic resource is exhausted.
I understand that rest is always needed, and I try to rest with varying degrees of success the last few days. Give me some more time please. I hope that within a week I will be able to feel the desire to create again.
Also, I have not forgotten about the art poll from last month, I am ashamed that I did not have time to do it and could not find the strength, I will try to draw art this month.

Your magic is not gone, Boni! You just ran out of mana for a while. It will restore naturally soon! <3 Like all wizards! Hehe :3 I hope you feel better soon! Please watch out and take care of any possible burnout symptoms, okie? We love ya and your work!
Maybe a spa day and some time in nature will heal and inspire you. Just relax and breathe deeply; we love you.
I am deeply sorry to hear and pray that whatever you decide to do, helps you recover and feel energized again. Whatever you decide is the best course of action and I just look forward to hearing that you feel better. Take all the time you need and I know you will find that spark again, for what you desire to do next!
Understandable, luv. Anybody gets stuck, mired or bogged down. Take a step back, a breather and a break and you will feel better after a cold one down the hatch ! CHEERS !!!
Damn, I'm sorry to hear that, Boni. Take time, relax. Hopefully you'll find that passion again 🙂
Try not to attack yourself too heavily, at times and environmental stimuli can make things hard to find the energy and brain juices. Things will come to you again.
Take a good rest, Boni. I can wait long time
Take your time and recover that drive to do what you love! Everyone needs breaks and rest~
Please hang in there and take care of your self.
Hey man, i just ran into this myself, the state of politics, world news, myself turning 40 soon... trying to figure some hurdles in my art... all building up to really sink my morale. It's honestly the first time i've hit a creative wall in my...15 year+ career but it apparently happens. Get some rest. Maybe mess around something new or something you may not have had the time to dig into from the past :) or do nothing, also a great chill idea
Don't worry too much about us, Boni. You take the time you need to take care of yourself and let the creative juices flow naturally. No one is holding it against you ❤
There is no need to apologies, it happens to the best of us. Take all the time you need, your well-being is important and should always come first. I hope you feel better and stronger soon, you have my thoughts.
It's ok! Take as much time you need to rest and come back fully charged! Everyone deals with a very bad case of burnout Every now and then. We'll be here when you're ready to come back
You are describing what exhaustion/burnout/depression is. Rest and recovery are what will help with it. Do/create/enjoy/work on something that goes along with your values. If it would be physically or mentally tiring, it will help you recover if it something that you genuinely know that goes along with your world views and values. True recovery comes from doing something that goes along your core values. I've been there. Be kind to yourself. As I was told once: "Don't burn yourself so that others will feel warm."
You do you boo, do what you have to do get you in a better state, we can wait
Your mental and physical well being is much more important than art. Take an extended break and recover.
Take your time! Your mental health is more important than a whole lot of other stuff here.
Take as long as you need, we will still be here.
Please, don't worry about that. Take whatever time you need to rest. And there is nothing ashamed in taking care of yourself. Your art has been always so inspirational, it gives so many energy, and it's absolutely fine that you need to refill your batteries. We'll always support you no matter what.
Honestly helps to hear when one of the artists I look up to also struggles sometimes
what would cheer you up homie
