>>54095923Truthfully? It started relaxing and enjoyable but I ended up turning it into a second, miserable job, to the point it drained time and enjoyment from my other hobbies. I even told myself I'd "quit" drawing, figuring I never had a passion for it and only enjoyed the new experience and the sense of accomplishment when finishing a piece for others to enjoy.
That isn't true though, what I'm trying to quit is the "second job" part; to remind myself to take it easy and have fun. So far it's working well, I enjoyed drawing that piece and wouldn't mind trying another one eventually, not sure when though.
Also sorry for being a bit "ranty". I hope I didn't discourage any potential artfags here. If there's a lesson to be learned is to take art as a marathon, not a sprint.
