Oh sorry that's unfortunate :( Hope you find another outlet for creativity. I find myself with no energy to paint (occasionally sketch) because of illness, apparently I'm going to recover soon but no timescale. I often dip into YouTube for inspiration on technique, and take photos to draw later if that's any help?

Ah sorry to hear you’re unwell. Hope you get better soon so you can get back into painting and sketching. :-)

I find the internet sucks the life out of my creative side. Overstimulation I guess.

Thanks. Yes the internet does provide a lot of noise and sometimes unhelpful comparison to people who are extremely skilled and/or have a lot more free time :0

Yeah I think that’s where I stopped painting etc. I was overwhelmed with what was out there and now you’re “competing” with the world’s best. :-/
