Next up on lavendertowne: cat breeds as cute girls

I can seriously relate to the "inspiration + execution but no motivation" bit. So many ideas written down as notes on my phone, art competitions and challenges open in browser tabs, yet only 1% end up being brought to life. I'm always so terrified to start a new project, because what if it's not perfect? What if I'm a failure and an embarrassment to the concept of art itself? It takes so much energy to overcome that fear and I'm already drained from studying graphic design.

Which sounds bad at first but is in a way inspiring, because it means if you have the will to keep going you really don't have to be a perfect artist to make it.

how dare this waddle into my notifications while im procrastinating on storyboarding my next animation

As a graphic design student, I completely understand the fact that keeping on doing work regardless of how you feel is essential. If I only worked on things when I was hit with inspiration or was super motivated, I'd get nothing done. I have discovered that sometimes just doing causes inspiration and then motivation picks up because you get excited about the idea.

My problem lies in execution. I don't feel like I am where I should be and for the longest time, and I mean for years, I didn't draw anything. This in turn took a toll in my motivation because whenever I had an idea I would be too scared to execute it because it wouldn't look good in the end. This year I want to work on this and something that helps me personally is going to my favorite artists' social media and looking at their techniques and the creative process behind their art. I hope this helps anyone out there who has the same issue. Thank you for the tips, Haley! Also your work area is super cute!

I have a chronic case of "write it in my head, draft it in daydreams, practically act it out... and then completely disconnect or freeze up when trying to physically write / draw / commit it to paper" so I 110% needed this video. Thank you!!!

Every single one of my friends have motivation lost at the moment mine is in a coma this will be really helpful thank you :)

Most of my art inspiration is from the Netflix cartoon Hilda. I’m also aware that there is a graphic novel series, I actually have the first book. Most of my technique comes from the show. I learned a lot just from doing fan art about anatomy and such. That’s how I came up with my art style.

Me: sees vid Also me: HOW DID YOU KNOW!?!?

Something that's helped me in the past when I was just sitting at my tablet all 'head empty no thoughts' was to pull up some old artwork I was really proud of making in the past and redraw it. It can be as little as 6 months old or as much as 6 years, but it gives me something to do that puts me in that headspace to draw and gives me a sense of direction. Some of my favorite drawings have been redraws of my old stuff because I could feel proud of finally feeling like I was able to present it the way I envisioned in my mind when I wasn't skilled enough at the time to execute it.

One of the things that helps me is drawing fanart! I mostly work on character designs and just drawing my OCs in general, but when I’m completely lost for motivation and inspiration, I just let myself have a break by drawing fanart of something I love. ^^

Great video! Sometimes you just have to start drawing even when you don’t feel initial motivation. Usually when you start doing instead of overthinking, you get motivation and inspiration. It’s easy to think about drawing but a lot harder to start, but once you start the motivation will kick in. Other times you might be burnt out which is a whole different thing and you need to step away. Don’t give up! 😃

Thank you so much for making this video! I’ve been seriously unmotivated for months now (and occasionally don’t have ideas) and it’s nice getting some useful advice I also agree with you: I realized that I have the most ideas when I’m bored, tired, or stressed out. I’d be more motivated and inspired to draw when I was at school than when I’m at home and stress free

it's only been 5 days and i already missed you!! so happy you're updating so rapidly your videos just give me that serotonin i so desperately need!!

As a kid, I would always get motivation at bedtime because that was when I wasn't allowed to really do much, so I would always draw in bed, and now I find that this made me naturally "Trained" to be motivated in a comfy spot.

thank you for giving me motivation today. I suffer from drepresion a lot and this manifests in lack of motivation mainly... but now I really feel like getting up, brush my teeth und hair and start drawing again. Thank you alot, you are a great atist and content creator.

You're actually a really big inspiration to me when it comes to art!! I sometimes don't watch 3 or 4 of your newest uploads so that when I wanna draw something I have this small list of videos to help inspire me!! Thats something that also can help with inspiration! Watching videos about someone talking and giving tips about art helps TONS when you wanna draw. The best ones are motivational art videos. When you watch art youtubers rant and their message is more of a " YOU CAN DO IT!! " or " You have to work for it!! " aka tough love, it really helps with helping you draw something!! A lot of the times when I dont wanna draw something at the moment but I start going down a hole of these types of videos. With like 2 videos in, I already wanna start drawing. Hopefully this can help anyone else!!

I have an idea but Idk how you might feel about it. Draw something, anything, and then come back to it a week later. When you come back, write down everything you want to change. And then redraw it with all the little notes and changes added in. And sometimes you might find you don't even enjoy drawing in the general style of what you're drawing. My other advice is to either use more references, or to just stop drawing for awhile so that your brain stops thinking about it so much and you come back clean and refreshed.

I’ve felt the way you do and one thing that has been helping recently is just... studying the basics. Study perspective, shading, basic shapes, composition.Understand how things work. Add details to your art. Understand why you hate your art and look at what other artists are doing right that you think you are doing wrong. Learn from that. Take things step by step. Gradually your art is going to look better and you’ll be happier. It sounds painful but there’s plenty videos and other resources that could help you out

Fantastic video! Honestly, I also experience a huge lack of motivation most times which really depresses me, because I want to become a professional animator. Every time I try to draw to improve my drawing skills, I feel like I´m not passionate and creative enough for this field, but I try to handle that. Wish you all a great time!

This is so scary, like EVERYTIME I need an art question answered a video of yours comes out soon after that answers the question 😂😂❤️❤️

You are like one of the only youtubers I can watch at night without headphones, you’re voice is so soft and hushed!

Thank you so much this actually helped me I am an animator and every single time I try to animate I always think it’s a literal garbage but now you have inspired me to try my best and do all the work I can to get a good animation thank you 😊

I also hate it when the execution is being outpaced by inspiration. When your ideas take a long to make, but while your materializing the idea you end up getting inspiration for something else. So you want to make something calm and depressing, but your in the process of doing something more energetic.

Oml the new cover is so amazing! 🤩 Tbh you are my inspiration and I just wanna say thank you for that💙

I really needed this video! Today I’ve just been so exhausted and uninspired, witch led to me feeling unmotivated. Hearing someone else talk about it is very helpful.

Me: ready to draw 10 fan arts School work: *no*

I constantly have inspiration and motivation, but not the execution. "Oooh thats a great idea! Let me draw it noww... wait I can't draw o-o" Fun times.

This is what I needed! I've been thinking of redesigning my main character, bc he's a bit on the boring side, and I've been lazy with it, and I ACTUALLY changed some things while watching this! Like his concept is looking better all ready! THANK YOU SO MUCH, like this is what inspired me to finally change the design.

Your videos always motivate me to draw and makes me happy, like your vids are a little treat! 😊 thank you for that

Hey! I was thinking if you ever done this: have you ever drew Mushrooms as people? Like how you draw food as people lol maybe you could do poisonous mushrooms and the once that are edible

I think it would be fun to make Disney Princess into magical Girls -repost if like

This is literally the best artist advice ever. Thank you

Oh my god! The advice about making yourself bored makes so much sense. I would doodle like full ink pictures during my classes all of the time, like to the point i would have to block out where my notes were, because I would be so bored sometimes.

My problem is whenever I try to look for inspiration from books I end up just copying what’s in it instead of coming up with something myself (and of course can’t execute what I want to make just frustrating me)

Overall great tips (Especially the 'boredom'-one) but I have to hard disagree with the last tip. I used to be in that mindset of "I HAVE to get this done, no matter how inspired/motivated I am" for a few months back in Summer, because I was doing weekly webcomic releases, which not only led to some of the worst art I had ever made, but also to a 3 month long art block and near burnout. No project is worth sacrificing your mental health for is the biggest lesson I took from that. I know you said that this tip doesn't apply to everyone, however I personally had no idea how harmful this mindset was for me until it was already too late. So imo if you want to try out this kind of workflow, do it for a week. Then look at your art, check your mental health, and really evaluate if this is worth it.

Thankyou for this video ! It felt good hearing someone put the struggle and solutions into words, btw amazing new cover for unfamiliar ! 😍

I always come back to your videos when I lose inspiration and motivation, thank you for making this video.💕

I wish I had room to draw with my tablet. I think the tiny, cluttered trailer I'm living in is definitely stagnating my motivation.

I NEED THIS! My motivation hasn’t been the same since 2021 started 😭

Thank you so much! I’ve been in a constant struggle with this and I’m really glad you made this video

Thank you for this! My motivation has seriously been down for a bit, and this helps a lot! Thank you again :D

Her:posed Fans: FIRST!!!

My problem: I’m not good at art

Yesssss, I've got inspiration and motivation but I'm lacking in execution which brings down my inspiration and motivation ;A;

This helped me SO much! I just recently got back into art (I sometimes get out of it but I think I’ll be into for a while now) and I struggle a LOT with inspiration and deciding what to Draw. Your really one of the artists I look up to a ton! Your tips always help me and I always write them down.

I’ve been trying to find a video like this and I finally did! Thank you so much! I struggle with finding ideas with what to draw or how to draw it this helped a lot thnx
