how do you overcome art block?

for overcoming or getting the art rolling again - i usually revisit things i like drawing that are super easy, like 5 minute doodles. it sounds a little counterintuitive to draw more, but little stress free, messy, funny little doodles help get me started again.

during said art block, i take a break from art a bit and let myself indulge in other things i enjoy - like a game, watching streams/movies/shows, cleaning, etc. maybe break is the wrong word, i might be avoiding it 😅 but it's important to let yourself enjoy other stuff too!

everyone's different, but this tends to be my usual experience when it gets difficult for me to draw or even just picking up the pen.
