i got a question
what do you do when you get anxious when drawing? how do you solve it? why this happen?

its because you're desconforme with the results of your work and cant do anything about it, even if you try over and over again? or because you're dedicading it too much time and need to rest?

You've got expectations and you're worried you won't meet them, probably.
Ditch those expectations, at least occasionally. Let stuff be shitty, just work through with it. That doesn't necessarily mean half-ass it, but get comfortable.
The best thing I did was slap a few really bad pages of art into my sketchbook. Before that I was hardly using it because I wanted every page to be really nice and it just made me anxious, now I don't give a shit and use it for what it's meant for.
You could also just use cheap supplies - printer paper and a bic pen or something, just have at it. The worst that could happen is you spend a few hours without a product you like, but it's still mileage.

"bad" emotions are a slow and long-time fuel to keep grinding it harder, remember this

It only hurts if you don't react

fucking suck it up and draw. If you are so self conscious you wont even draw anything out of fear you might produce something shitty, you will never improve and it will be a self perpetuating cycle. If you don't like it, erase it or throw it away, the lessons been learned anyways, so there isn't much use in keeping it around unless you want something to compare to later to track your progress.

this.

I am 30 and have spent probably the last 10 years wanting to paint, but haven't dared to do anything cause I was afraid to suck. Three weeks ago I finally started and I've been drawing every day. I am kind of demotivated by my level, but I realize that I learn from the shitty drawings as well as the good ones.

also I just don't care that much. I'd rather be shitty at my hobbies than not having any hobbies at all.

Drink or eat when drawing.
Tea and cookies is a nice combination

I actually get anxious when I try to start drawing, once I draw, its actually fun. But getty myself to draw hurts (even when I have more than enough time do so)

I'm an anxious guy and like an anon said, meditation very good. I can concentrate more, and draw.

>>2266224
I'm 30 too anon and I started to draw seriusly few months ago.
Forget about motivation, motivation is something you lose easily. Create an habit and you will draw if you are demotivated, tired, etc. Just draw
