Omg it makes me SO sad to see some of the responses people give to beginner artists' attacks on art fight, especially in comparison to the same person's responses to more popular/more seasoned artists :( It'll be like literally just two words and no emotion compared to a paragraph of compliments.

Because I am surrounded by wonderful friends who love me and nourish my animation love, I was reminded of Koji Nanke's animation for the Urusei Yatsura OPs and EDs. Have spent the better half of today repeatedly watching this over and over again from ED 2; textbook definition of charm and appeal

as an animator i can't stress enough how important it is to take breaks and do activities that DON'T involve drawing read a book, watch a movie, play a game, learn how to knitt. you'd be surprised how quickly your creative juices get replenished by just enjoying yourselves
