Sir, I don't think you should be sick of your own work. Honestly if anything at all I am most inspired from your life sketch a lot and I miss Life Drawing classes already.
But it maybe a temporary artist block you are going through, I hope it will be over soon though and you will be able to get a long good rest! Also, when do you suppose TOAC will hold an animal life drawing class?
And Cephier, people get sick of their own works when they are wishing they could have done better but couldn't, yet. Well, atleast to me that was it. I always dislike my works whenever I feel the great urge to improve as well.
Perhaps you might want to take a short break from all the continuous work, sir. Like ~LyrusFier said, this is a phase of artist's block... and a case of burn-out...
My suggestion is that you look around at other works in the current art scene. Could be new movies, new artbooks, or a new young artist's online portfolio, comics or fellow colleagues' work, anything that will inspire one to create and draw again. That way new fresh ideas will come in to wash away all those burn-out feelings...
Your work has always been inspirational to me, sir! Life Drawing may not be my excelling field, but I really want to refine my skills in it. Sometimes I get the same feeling doing certain things over and over again, can't seem to get it right somehow... but after exposed to new things and ideas, it all magically returns back, and being able to get better results~
See you around sir, I believe you'll get through this and even show us some new art you drew which is way better than before~
hey eric~! i totally understands how u feel man. sometimes i also get sick of drawing.....it's like overdose of coffee or porn and stuff like that. u just dun wan to see it anymore. i suggest u just take few days off and do something else, have fun, be crazee, just let go of yourself. and then after that, u will feel better and starts to miss ur work. eventually u will turn out ok and starts kicking ass....i mean working again. ^^
I dun really understand my own feeling sometimes, when i look at my com, pencil or wacom... i just dun really feel like doing any works... i been thru some difficult time b4, but this round seems so different... i really got no power to draw and i just hate my own work... can't even look at them, i think what i lack off is something that really inspired me at this moment....!
I had the same problem on Tuesday night, when I had to do my animation. I went back home and came back to the 2d lab just to waste the whole night from 7 to 12 am doing nothing, absolutely nothing, Sitting there staring at the unfinished frames. by 8.10 pm I just gave up and stop doing my work, packed up and slept in front of the com.
Anyway... Like they say Shit happens. It happened to me and it'll happen again sometime in the future. In my experience especialy as a student from TOA and the mountains of assignments, if I have this "artsist Block" I just stop doing what ever I don't have inspiration to do and just hang around, have some rest and surf online for art works like DA. This helps me in forgetting the problems and stress but at the same it'll help to gather idea's and inspiration to continue my work.
If all fails, I just relax outside and have a cup of tea.
maybe.... like wat Sandcastle and Lyrusfier said... u shud take a break... maybe try something new for instant... something other than art... i do noe that i may not be that easy but perhaps if u tried maybe u cud get some inspiration there to draw or somthing like that.... well i do that sometimes...
but personally i feel u shuden hate ur own work cause they are masterpieces u created with the talented gift that u have... somthing that most of us need to harvest on with more effort to reach ur stage... the masterpiece stage.
i really do pray that u wud soon get over this feeling.... :wink:
