Sowwy, this isnt my usual kind of post.. I wouldve just made a journal but no one sees those..
A lot has been happening and I just wanted to talk about it. The recent lack of art is because.. well.. not art block, its actually the complete opposite,, Ive been struggling a lot with,, what to make. I wanna make things in 3D, but then I see a drawing that inspires me to draw, so I wanna draw and Im then stuck in some kind of loop of wanting to do one thing then wanting to do the other,, I can barely even think of what to listen to when I draw, so I end up getting completely distracted and get nothing done entirely...
There are so many things I wanna make and create that I just end up doing nothing and its worse now than its ever been before. Im trying hard to break this block Im facing but its really hard...
Its not even just being unable to decide what to make.. I have ideas, I even have finished drawings that I think I wanna post, but find myself afraid of the reaction I'll get for it, Im not even sure about making this, because Im not sure if people will care..
Ive even had some things I wanna make that arent fat related which also makes me nervous, would anyone wanna see that? And some things I wanna make are heavily inspired by other art that Ive seen, and Im nervous that it would be seen as copying... would it? I dont know..
Its not just this, there are just things I see that cloud my mind and make it hard to focus even more. Im very passionate about video games, I wanna be a game developer, and seeing so many video games made that are just horrible makes me sad. And AI... Its hard to even describe how much I despise AI... People making AI art, or videos, or stories, it so unfortunate.. It doesnt require any work or talent, yet people look at it as if its good?
All these overwhelming thoughts makes it very hard for me to finish things, I want to do things, and Im trying... but its hard, I wanna feel committed to one thing and not change my mind, at least until I finish one thing... but it feels like I get halfway through a project (if Im lucky) and then wanna move onto something else. Honestly I was lucky with my most recent video, I was determined the entire time I made that, I dont know why I cant find determination that again...
huff.. Im sorry for writing so much... if you actually read all of that... I would really like to thank you, that means a lot to me, and.. if you wanna let me know with a comment I would really really appreciate it... I dont want to seem like Im begging for attention but your support really helps motivate me...
like I said, Im not sure If anyone will care considering this isnt fat art but... I really hope you do...

I understand what you mean. Creating things can be sometimes really hard and stressful, I always feel like that too. I want to create so many things and I can't always find motivation. But, you don't always have to show people your art, and, what's important is that you try, even if you're just creating a little thing or practicing, it always helps. But Pixy, I really admire you. I can tell you're a passionate and creative person. You have a gift, and while sometimes it's hard to focus on just one thing, that doesn't mean this is the end. All the things you struggle with. And don't be worried about trying other styles of art! It's important that you're finding what works best for you and what you enjoy the most! Also, yes, I'm sure people will enjoy your non-fat art! There are people who will enjoy any art you make and that's all you need. I'm so lucky to have such a kind person like you. Thank you for sharing how you feel with me, I really appreciate it and I hope things goes well. You already know how much your words mean to me, and I love listening to my friends or people I trust. I don't mind how big these paragraphs can be, I'll listen as long as I want. Don't ever hesitate to tell me about how you feel. You're very important person, Pixy. Don't forget that 💙🤍
Oh gosh, thank you so much, all that really means a lot to me.. thamk you for understanding my struggles too
That does make me feel better, I shouldnt stress so much about what I make and just do whats making me happy @w@ also dats weally sweet qwq thamk you for saying im creative, i try to be ehehe,, also I have actually been trying other styles to make my art faster and more to my liking, which is kinda another discouraging thing when I try to make something and it doesnt work out, thamk you for the encouragement and your kind words, it does make me feel better and more inspired to work on stuff >w< even non fat art, Im probably gonna do some of that now x3
Also about the paragraphs, dont worry I always love reading your comments, theyre always so nice! I really do wanna thamk you again for commenting on my art, it really means a lot to me ,,^w^,,

Cut social media to failure, your addicted to attention
Nofap for a entire month
Coin flip/RANDOM.org to decide projects, this site isn’t social media and there’s tons of artists that are left in obscurity and are otherwise fine.
Don’t care about how people react, if you have to worry about that then they don’t like you in the first place.

I went through and am still kind of going through something similar to what you described what I recommend is finding something encourage you either a friend, your partner, or something that makes you feel better.
For wanting to post art that you think no one will care about I’d say just forget what people will think since it is better to post stuff that you want to post rather than posting stuff to try and appeal to others.
I know I was only able to speak about two things and that’s because they are the only things I can really say something about but I just want to let you know Pixy I have no problem with how you decide to go with your posts and your art since I’ll still like it regardless of what kind of art you post

Yeah, ehe i talked to my bf about it, but i also made this for encouragement too, which is already really helping ehehe, and yeah I really shouldnt worry so much but i do, this post did help with that tho seeing everyones kind comments it really means a lot to me, thank you for your support so much >w<
Thamk you for saying that, and thank you for leaving comments on my stuff, you probably dont know how much it means to me but it does, thamk you ^w^

As someone who does normal art/music as my main focus but does fat stuff on the side as well, yes fat art is gonna get more attention if that's your main audience, but you shouldn't stress about if people will like it or not.
As for switching back and forth with what you want to do or get inspired to do, write down notes of any ideas you have, see if you can do them later. You don't have to finish everything in one go.
Inspiration isn't the same as copying unless you're directly tracing, that's how I view it. If you're worried about people thinking you copied someone just because you were inspired, just don't worry too hard about it. Why do you think memes exist? Many people do their own take on certain scenarios like the whole "she wants to order" or the ladder with the belly laying on the top stuff that's gone around a lot within the past year or so.
You seem to be worrying a lot about attention. I completely understand that, it's a part of human nature to want attention. You're a pretty damn good artist, and (to my knowledge) FurAffinity doesn't have an algorithm to beat, so people are gonna notice stuff you make on the browse feed no matter what.
"I don't want to seem like I'm begging for attention"
I don't see any of what you're saying as "begging for attention," you're just putting your thoughts out there for people to be informed. That's a good thing.
TLDR, don't over-stress about if people are gonna see your stuff, because yes, people are gonna see your stuff. That's what this site is supposed to do, show people stuff you make.
If you wanna chat, my notes and Discord DM's are open (same username as FA). (I'd prefer Discord but if you don't want to use that I completely understand.)

I personally love seeing whenever you post literally anything, whether it's art, fat art, or just an update like one of these. You're gonna have people like that here and there that'll support what you do no matter what you do, even if they don't particularly like it. Just saying.
Yeaahh thats true,, and i guess it isnt bad to switch between projects if i need to eheh. Thamk you for saying what you said about my inspiration, that actually makes me feel a lot better about that, I am just putting my own twist on what i like to see, i mean if someone drew something i originally did it would pwobably make me feel good ehehe, and that does make a lot of sense, and i might start crediting the original art that inspired me to make me feel even better x3
Also yesh i really like furaffinity and the system for it, i hope it never changes, its so easy to find art from people whether they have 2 watchers or 2000 watchers, and i just love seeing everyones comments ehehe also thamk you, i did feel like it seemed like i was begging for attention, and honestly still kinda feels like it but i really appreciate that,, thamk you for all your nice words it means a lot to me >w<

I 100% understand you. Like the rest of the comments, you're not alone. I, too, go through something similar. I'd say to do what you want, and if people have a problem with that, then they aren't your audience. It's okay and never too late to try something new! You got this, friend.
I completely understand what you mean by this! I’ve honestly been under a similar stress with art where I have a lot of ideas but either get distracted by other things or lose interest in the idea when I actually start working on it. It’s why I haven’t drawn much lately. It can be really confusing and frustrating not being able to stick to an idea and commit to it without feeling a drop of interest, but I believe you can do it! While it may take some time and work, learning how to stay dedicated to a project takes some real determination but the end result could possibly be something worth the effort! And when it comes to fearing how others react, it’s your art! You can draw what you want and even if others react negatively just because it isn’t fat doesn’t mean that what you did was bad, seeing people negatively view a normal piece of art really just shows who is truly a fan of your art or just in it for quick fats, and you should draw what makes you happy y’know? I understand wanting to draw stuff and get a positive reaction from it but it comes with the Territory of fat fur art, some people out there only care for the fats. But your art is great! I’ll happily support a normal non fat art piece from you and be interested in some of those ideas! Sorry for the long post, I’m a pretty fast writer so I sometimes lose track of how long I go on about. But You’re desires and what you want to do are very important and shouldn’t be dissuaded by those who only want to get what they want out of you.
Awww,, wow reading that,, that all really means a lot to me! It shows how much you care writing something so long! ^w^
Im sowwy to hear you have the same issues, its not exactly fun what im feeling, it can be really confusing and frustrating, that confusion and frustration is what led me to make this eheh.. Im kinda trying to learn to stay dedicated to one thing, I just have to think of new things that keep my interest i think x3 but im also trying out just doing what i want in the moment
Also what you said about how people react, you worded that vewy good, reading it made me feel really good, and i agree! I should be able to post what i want and what makes me happy, and thamk you so much! Im happy to hear youll enjoy what i post, fat or not x3, I hope you do enjoy it all!
And dont worry, I appreciate the long comment, it was really nice to read! Thank you so much for writing this, it means so much and thank you for your support! Im actually posting something new that i was nervous to post before since its so different but all this gave me the courage to post ehehe, thank you again!! ^w^

I have the probably same problem, i do art and even game dev too, of course for me is easier to find motivation for drawing because is easier for me, but if you have problem with what to do between two things make an list it can probably do much easier if you have list with to do stuff, just focus on first thing on list and go to another when you done, it will be way easier for you espeslly when you have tons of ideas and you dont know what to do... *hugs*
Awww thamk you so much! I am happy to see you have it easier with drawing, you post so much its always great to see every new drawing of yours!! ^w^ also yesh dats a good idea, just do one thing at a time, I should do dat, but recently Ive been switching around on projects a lot but I am getting them done! thamk you for your support >w< *hug*
