I always do this, but when i pick bac up on it either a couple of weeks or a month or so later it fucks up my whole flow and ruins the pictures/:

@xnyrual I have a lot of trouble with this too. I started and am more comfortable working along with my moods, and my drawings will look drastically different if i’m tired or if I’m not feeling it. I used to always finish stuff in one shot because of this. This resulted in a lot of work sessions that lasted anywhere from 5-12 hours. Any time I picked something up the next day, the vibe of the drawing or painting often got ruined.

But I also didn’t really plan my paintings. It was all done in the moment. My current painting requires a lot of planning. I’ve never made anything like this before and it’s coming out pretty nicely. I’m finding that it’s more difficult to ruin it because I’m coming at it from a very technical position with a defined end result, instead of a thing that’s like “we’ll see what happens with it”. But of course, there’s still room for failed experiments trying to get it where I want it or not getting colors/lines right, etc.

The new problem is the monotony of working on the same thing for a month. I get why artists will have a bunch of paintings going at once. I’m getting really tired of looking at this thing.
