This is harder then i thought

>Draw 1 hour a day everyday, but never apply anything outside of studying
>Really just want to draw cartoons, but don't know where to begin
>Don't know what I want to draw, but studying how to draw people in the hope it will make me good at drawing comic books/cute girl cartoons.

>Only think about my drawing on the page as I see it
>Can cover up my lack of imagination through good execution, but at the core it's a bland idea.

It's kind of like when you see someone polishing a turd through rendering. I feel like when I get to where I want to be I'll be the next merc_wip; my design/composition is going to be very poor.

Is there a way around this?
I can't conceptualize anything. Even when I read books, the image flashes through my mind, and then, it's gone.

>does looking at other's art inspire you or depress you? does something else trigger your low moods?
Depends, if I really like it and want to do something similar (and I know I can) then yeah it can be. Other times I just get really mad at myself for not being better. I think realizing how much time I've wasted definitely triggers low moods, have to consciously remind myself to stay in the present which is really hard for me.

>how do you push through moments where you feel too low to draw (inb4 "do it faggot")?
I listen to music/interviews/whatever to block everything out which helps a lot cause my mind wanders so fucking much. Never finish anything.

I do, like another anon said up there it's hard to feel confident in sitting down and drawing when you have other issues that make you not even do it in the first place. But once I sit there and get into a zone I end up having having fun even if it's really hard, it's the attention span that needs a good beat down- always get bored and want to do other stuff without completing whatever it was I was doing.

Over the last couple days I think I've been going through some severe depression and general anxiety but I don't know why. I'll work on some art but give up minutes later after losing all interest.

How do I find motivation again? Why am I so stressed?
