✏️✧ September Sketchbook tour #1 ✧ doing the same thing differently (Patreon)

Hello! ◝(ᵔᵕᵔ)◜

Lately, I've been revisiting the same themes again and again while sketching. It's been nice rediscovering what brings me alive while creating, what I feel best conveys the emotions I want to communicate. I used to see it as a detriment and forced myself to expand my familiarity with a breadth of subjects, that I wasn't a "real" artist unless I could draw a ton of different things. I've noticed though that so many of my favorite creatives tend to explore the same subjects/themes over and over again, as if they're having a conversation with their interests and seeing it in a slightly new way each time. They return to the subject once more in hopes of understanding it better, of finding a new angle from which to appreciate its qualities. I see that connection as a strength, not a weakness, and love how you can feel a creator's personality and story through what they make. I don't think it's necessary or possible, even, to be good at everything. I'm finding the handful of things that I really care about and allowing the scope of my ways of seeing to expand within those bounds.
