also switching to clip studio paint definitely helped as well lol.. painttool sai just didnt have the things i needed to progress and improve anymore

most of my motivation came from trying a different art style completely and drawing in a way that actually is fun for me....... ive always kind of struggled with my art style and ACTUALLY having fun while drawing but ive been feeling really good about it as of late!

i also got clip studio paint so hopefully i have more motivation to draw again..... i really really like this brush

sorry. did not have a good time today with UPS
