    I’ve always loved the animated TH-cam channels. It’s unfortunate TH-cam doesn’t give animators more attention or audiences give more patience and understanding on how much time and effort a single video takes. But Daidus, your in JAPAN! Make memories! Enjoy the moments! Go hang out with Emily. It’s the Kiki conundrum of using your passion as your living. Take all the time you need. Your animations were always very interesting and goofy.

    I completely understand. I took AP Art, and the constant need to produce to not fail affected me mentally, especially when a lot of things happened in my senior year. It left me burnt out and I stopped drawing for a long time. My love for art was dwindling for years until a few months ago

    • @ninjaydes

  • @MaryArts

    It is like sport. Animation is basically running full on marathons. Drawing on paper is like a happy little workout. You have to convince yourself everytime to do that workout but when you do it, you get so happy, you question yourself why it was so hard to start. And it may happen every time that the start will burn you out.
    Daidus, you are just someone who takes your time. You may be slower doing productive things than others, but acceptance is key

    Okay professional yapper here to do some yappin... I've been watching Daidus since 2020, right at the start of the pandemic. I found him when I was really struggling with stuff, and his videos always made me laugh (had just watched Death Note and was loving the references). Not only did they make me smile, but they also inspired me to pick up my pencil again and start drawing. I hadn't drawn since I was really little, but Daidus' videos made me wanna try again. It resparked my love of art, and gave me something to look forward to. Recently, I've hit that roadblock again. This is a youtube comment section, so I'll spare my story lol, but I haven't been able to draw like I use to and it's been frustrating. This video was really comforting, and it reminded me that people struggle. And like that's okay (woah, shocker :O) sometimes we need to take a break, or try something new. when you look at it like that, it isn't too bad (still really scary ngl but hey baby steps :D)
    To sum up that big block of text: Thank you Daidus! I wouldn't recommend reading this but thanks for inspiring me (again) to keep drawing

    I practically stopped drawing 10 years ago from burn out and I never really ever came back to it again, which sucks because I really loved to draw. I unfortunately got into a warped view of my art due to comparing myself, an amateur artist, to much more experienced (professional) artists and that's what made art stop being fun for me. I slowly started accepting that art isn't my thing anymore but recently learn that I have to change my mindset about drawing and stop pressuring myself to draw at a level I was never at. But also that there are other ways to be creative, like crocheting! All of this to say that in some way I feel you and glad you found a way to enjoy art again!
    I have subscribed to you and Emily's new channel :) Good luck!

The times i've gone 7 months to a YEAR without writing or drawing for myself....And sometimes I think HUH maybe it's over. Maybe I can't do it anymore. And then , yeah, when suddenly something happens to bring that motivation and feeling of love for your craft back and you realize ah damn here we go again. This is why I haven't quit since I was 11 in middle school. Like I understand man. 🤧 TBH never apologize for taking time for yourself.

    I can very much relate to the struggles of making videos, keeping up with it and the expectations you can put yourself under. Also that fear of starting over for each video it's always so daunting! But good job on taking care of yourself last year and working towards a new endeavour! I want to get back into traditional art too, glad Spilled Ink is doing well already! All the best Daidus!

    honestly this makes me feel much better about the break im having from drawing, ive started to think that it might just not be for me, but this kind of gives me some sort of hope that i can still experience the joy of creating something on paper. thank you :DD

    Glad you've found your groove in drawing again. I've been wondering for a long time now how sustainable it is to animate by yourself. I did some animation units back in the day and by god you're slaving away while Conner just plays games for content lol. I digress. Good onya!

    Daidus… literally just do whatever makes you have FUN!! It sounds like that’s your gut telling you to do this, because it looks like it keeps nagging you to do it! You’re gonna have a lot of fun trying whatever you want to do, you’re going to learn new skills, it’s gonna change things up, you’re gonna add new audiences to your community, etc
    Good luck man! I’m so happy for you 👏

  • @saxenart

    This video is do relatable! I also experienced the same with digital art…I was kinda done with it for a while and still kinda am a little bit. I thought that I was just burned out from drawing but when I drew traditional art, it was really fun! It took me a few years to start making digital art again, but I think even now I still prefer traditional art because it just feels so much more relaxing.

  • @sarahtelles1931

  • @lefthandersrule9419
    @lefthandersrule9419 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Good to hear from you again. I'm actually going on a similar journey myself. I used to put so much pressure on myself to make perfect art, that I just stopped having fun. So I've been trying to relearn how to enjoy the process, accept mistakes and so on.
    I just subscribed to your new channel. I'm looking forward to what the future brings!

    oh that death note exhibit sounds really cool!! your statement about digital art vs traditional art also resonates with me and Ive been feeling in a similar way regarding it recently -- now I really wish I was in a position to check out that death note exhibit haha it genuinely sounds like it has the magic of reigniting one's curiosity regarding art. i really love how all the manga panels look and seeing the behind the scenes of it sounds *really* cool- that aside, my love for art in general has also been reignited recently after a 4 year long burnout due to a project I ended up joining. i hope things start looking up for you, thank you for the video and cheers !!

    I've seen this video a bit late, but Spilled Ink has been one of my favorite channels the last couple of weeks. I think it popped up in my feed because of the Connor collab, but I've loved all of the videos so far! Can't wait to see what you guys make.

  • @Axoktly

    that was a fun video, Daidus. I'm the type of persons who like art as a hobby but dont actively improve on it, but watching your vid make me think of all the things i can experience if i take on this journey. Though i am still struggling with motivation and a lot of distractions in life, I wish to create something and put all of my passion into it. Thank you for the vid, Daidus!

    Was sitting right beside you when you came last year in Montreal while Emily was doing her conference, it was very fun to meet you guys in person.
    I'm glad you're doing okay, I know you say your art is not the best and all but we all love it. It's familiar and your videos are funny and reassuring in a way during the day.
    So keep it up, I'm glad you find your passion back, and you can count on us to follow your new ideas!

    Im so hyped for you new channel!! I started with traditional and kept with it for a long time before i could afford a new one, and even now, experimenting with new supplies and just drawing for the sake of having fun in traditional art is something i still love doing :) i hope you have a lot of fun with it !
    Please keep your mental health first and your audience second. Whats the point of art if it stops being fun??

  • @arielr4167
    @arielr4167 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I find it really interesting that you’re turning to traditional in a time of burn out because several of my artist friends and I also came to that conclusion recently! We’ve all done strictly digital art for years and could feel ourselves lose the drive we had for it, so we all started sketchbooks and we do challenges every week :D it’s honestly been SO refreshing. Can’t wait to see what y’all get up to on Spilled Ink!
