This is SO true. I was raised with the idea that artists were bums, was a good girl, tried to study law, failed, then English, succeeded, but wasn't happy. Had little talent for art, but a craving for the creative. Having a baby and being a mom was a good excuse to be creative. I started doing kids' make up for theater, started to design new faces, started sketching, coloring and whoops, there was art and I loved it and quickly became better. But now I was a bum! No matter how much we tell ourselves things are not what we learned, it is stored in the fabric of our bodies. Even now, almost 20 years later I still feel my body protest when I sit down to work. Queasiness, a faint ache in the belly, a quick hesitation if I should sit down or not. Especially when there's been a break. Habits, deeply engraved lessons...it's not just thinking...psychology...our body stores them all. I think we're only just at the beginning of becoming aware of that connection. Your advice, patience, is a good one. But I hope to one day shake the physical sensations altogether and not feel that hesitation at all anymore. It would leave so much energy for just doing the work...

Who are you! Just what I needed to hear! I have been too busy to have time to draw…which I used to love as a kid. Now just diagnosed cancer and in chemo. I have been going thru many emotions but for some reason I have pulled out a sketchbook and pens. Well they are just sitting there…….I think you have inspired me to go for it. We really do not know how much time we have. But you understand! I am a little afraid if I start to draw I will just cry and melt into a little puddle….but maybe not. The world has seemed ugly with the chemo….maybe I can see it’s beauty again thru drawing. I will give it a go!

I feel this. I worked at a doctor’s office during the pandemic (not frontline or anything) so my day-to-day didn’t change much because I still went in each day. But my weekends and my free time turned from socializing to drawing/writing all the time. It’s hard to go hang out with friends now because of it.

I’ve had a hard time working in my studio after lockdown and I didn’t understand why. Some people took full advantage of the time and got a lot done, but the most creative thing I did was transform our garden and retiled one of our bathrooms and made a shower. In the garden I felt artistic because color is color after all. But now we are more or less allowed to resume our pre-pandemic lives, even though only 38% of people in Missouri got both shots. I’m struggling to get my head back into the studio doing what used to bring me joy. I’m getting there, but it’s a struggle!

Every word so true. I work in the care sector, and unlike nurses who were in the frontline, we were permanently working in the trenches. I didn't realise it at the time, but it was an isolating and diminishing experience in terms of creativity. I often wonder whats happened to me, but this essay of yours seems to have given the problem an identity. Like most things, it was quite simple in the end, but one needs another's perspective sometimes. Thankyou, and my best wishes to you and yours.

This essay makes eloquent all of the bad feelings I've been having for a while. I went part-time as an artist in March, knowing full well that I probably wouldn't make anything monetary for a while (if ever), but with the support of a loving family and a sense of excitement that I haven't felt since I was a kid. Despite all of that, I had all the old doubts and worries that made me quit in my early twenties. I'm "ready to board", though. I want art in my life again now and always. Thank you so much!

I'm so sorry. Maybe you could draw your memories, or draw your brother from reference photos. Visit places you went to together, the house you grew up in, the tree you climbed. When I found out someone I used to date had died, I spent a long time writing down everything I could remember about them, even writing TO them, if that makes sense. Regrets are tough. There are still so many things I want to ask my parents and never had the chance.

Thx for this video- first time posting to you- something you said about the vanity of indulging ourselves when we are creative resonated with me - I always struggled with this - end up painting (not everyday) late into the night, because I start late. I’m not only disrespecting myself by doing something when I’m tired as I then end up copying something almost stroke for stroke - it’s also pretty dumb, I’m constantly in artificial light… the colours don’t pop as they should, I get too little or too much coverage with the paint. In the words of Arthea Franklin, I need to have a bit more 🎶 R-E-S-P-E-C-T 🎶 for myself! Thank you for your comments enabling me to feel and see this to change it. 👍 Kind wishes 🌻

I lived with chronic pain for 17 years and got very used to being bed bound almost all the time and the pain disappeared in Nov 2019 so right before the pandemic which means that I was well adapted to pandemic life already, but I can still relate to the feeling of being out of safety and your used-to environment when you go out into the world even if you've been there 100 times before. I've also overcome ptsd as well and not feeling safe where you know you are safe is a mind over matter type thing where meditation and breathing exercises really help so that you can ground yourself and self soothe the feeling. It's important to learn to work with the emotion where you feel queasy or other sensations or the relief when you get back home will be a strong reinforcer and develop social anxiety so look into breathing exercises and meditations to help you through the discomfort phase that will probablybe a bit of a norm for a while post pandemic.

Bingo! Retired not entirely by my choice, moved from an active, growing, cool city to a very small town with economy based on huge art tourism but no jobs unless in art or tourism. Well I don’t care to clean rooms so only one option left. Did a bit of art in college and always had a few creative projects on the go so after much self-education, thought, and serendipity I grabbed hold of the idea to make it my own. I watched many, many videos about water colors and your own sketch skool’s many & various ways to explore, just start and do, and more importantly encouragement! Thank you. I’m now an entrepreneur with the kernels-started during my pandemic life-of a creative little business making watercolor postcards and small art. I’ve even already sold my little first batches of ideas with more on the way. Deep depression about all my losses in the past 7 years has lifted! Life returns, differently but the same! Thanks!

I feel anxiety because of the changes that have occured, because of all the strangeness and unfamiliarity and largely because of the insane way people are behaving, generally and towards other people. I have little fear of the virus despite being "vulnerable" and am trying very hard to behave normally - for my own sanity and to help others to regain their normaility. Last week I finally got to eat in a restaurant, go swimming and walk through town. And guess what... I didn't die.

Danny, thank you so much. I'm a very precarious person and I have as you said hunkered down in my home since December of 2019 when I became very ill and I found out later that was covid. And since then there have been some family tragedies and covid prevented us from seeing those people so on and so forth but yes it is much like Stockholm syndrome although they haven't coined the name for it yet and you're queasiness and anxiety I totally understand... And I really bless you for sharing it with us and people need to hear that everyone feels like this. And it's not going to go away soon because we've been forced to become used to something else and that's something else is constantly changing and people have a hard time dealing with constant change. When I found you and sketchbook Skool, about 5 weeks ago I thought I have got to do this because this is going to help me. And it has every day now once in awhile I miss a day of making a drawing but I'm doing my best. And videos like this and the one where you shared about your wife really help me a person who's 60 years old I live alone I have pets and that's my whole thing. And not seeing people is the worst possible thing for me and as of late I've started to draw a few people which is interesting. So really from the bottom of my heart thank you I'm glad you went to New York City I'm sure it's still New York City because those people there are some stalwart folks. Best wishes Trinity

NYC prices make me sick too. Joking aside, life is really short. Society and the mentalities that ping back and forth are really tiresome. We don’t live alone but we really can’t just live for others either. Or live in fear of the other. Life is basically living with uncertainty. Comfort seems nice but it’s an illusion. Fear is just a trap.

Bless you for this Stockholm syndrome and loss of creative drive have plagued me, even high blood pressure. You have described it perfectly, and knowing it isn't "just me" feeling like I'm losing my mind helps tremendously. And as a former Long Islander now living in a town of 5000, I really thought I just missed the accessibility to FOOD, but it's the whole mish mash of cultures and artistic styles that leave an empty space. It's going to take some time and the world will never be the same, but maybe this is just another level of our evolution, hopefully to more creative beings. That being said, I might do bodily harm for some real cannolis and a foldable slice.

I had similar physical discomfort recently. It was post vaccines and we were all clear to go out into the world. But I was so hesitant to see people. People that I longed to see. Were they ready to interact? Did they care to anymore? Did I still possess social skills enough to engage. We recently returned home after many years in Phoenix; coming back here was a covid induced response to months of isolation. Since being back, slowly unpacking over the course of minor home renovations, I hard picked up my sketchbook because I didn't have a comfortable place to work and there was nowhere to go.On top of worrying about my fears of social rejection (horrible for an extrovert!), I was also worrying that I had lost my art making mojo and, more importantly, its capacity to carry me away from all anxiety, worries, and the distressing. I'm coming out of it now. I remembered that I found SBS and your videos shortly after my mom died 4 years ago; they inspired me to return to art making (something my mom would have loved to see) and reacquaint myself with a part of me I thought I thought was long gone.

I had the same tummy ache recently when meeting with a (small) group of artists (outside) recently. Utter panic. For me I think it was more social anxiety, I have seen close to nobody for a long time, or then just one person every other month. Seeing a group was daunting. It went ok though. The fear of the pandemic I don't find as irrational, it's still very much here and lingering and not everybody has been vaccinated either. I don't feel the fear, for me it's more about being cautious. I would not go to a big city right now, unless I had to.

Can see myself in this comment and the video. We have everything from milk to salad and apples delivered home. With Delta marching in, I will stick to that adapted behaviour till hopefully the 3th vaccine comes out. It's not fear (at least not only) but much more being cautious and prepared to deliberately "go out and party" once the time is right. Unfortunately, that's not now, the pandemic is not over, it's gaining momentum again and it looks like the vaccine is not the last cure, not the sought for full stop. I had the second vaccine and went through fever, headache and cold shivers. If the vaccine does that, and that's supposed to be our protection, by our body learning to deal with the virus, I really don't want to try out the clean virus. Especially since it's known, that no symptoms during infection, still can lead to Long-Covid, found more and more with children too. And then the "I am not ill, I don't feel anything, I am healthy, why should I go into quarantine?"-egoistic-unsocial-mentality. We are all in this, no exception to the virus. So better take the mask and all the practiced precautions since over a year now and meet people outside than be sorry. It's not worth to only party once and be gone. We still don't know what this virus does to our body, brain, muscles in the long term. By the way: is it really that bad to wear a FFP2-Mask, considering the pros and cons?! Who said we can't draw a smiley or anything funny on it with a ballpoint? My daughter loves it! ;-)

As my my job was considered 'essential', my life was essentially normal throughout the pandemic except for a lot less people around and having to wear a mask here and there. Many of my family and friends had locked themselves away frightened and some are still doing it. Some have come out of their homes more, but are not the same people. The whole episode affected people mentally.

I've caught some videos about the show and her work and she seems like a portrait artist who told interesting stories.

You probably felt the unease borne of knowing that you were being sucked into a massive vortex of unreality . And your body knew that all the lockups and covered faces were not only antithetica to our humanity, but destructive to the psyche. Having just survived two years of hell in Australia, I can attest to those feelings; however, the thing that got me through was NEVER playing the game- ever. Oh, and art.

Interesting. I have not worn masks except for at work. I had the virus early on before it was even talked about and so had natural immunity. I worked with the public and lost my job but slid into another one and was considered an essential employee. Masks made me sick (faint and tired etc) as I have a low pulse rate. I left that job. I have no fear and am overjoyed to see people smile and even hug again. My friends who wore masks religiously got the virus as often or more than those who rarely did which I found disconcerting. In fact two friends who seemed to get the sickest wore masks all the time. These are just observations. Two people who grow up in the same family can have differing views on all things in life. What we believe whether right or wrong shapes our feelings and actions and even our freedom. I hope all feel safe and free soon. I used to paint often as a young person but set it aside for job, family responsibility, and other things like hiking and kayaking that I did with friends. Now I want to paint again but boy is the bike rusty. Still I am loving it! It is possible to guide your soul and settle your feelings with proper self talk. Don't berate yourselves or entertain negative self talk. YOU are a person of value. Peace and joy and freedom to all.

I know many that are having similar experiences. For me, I feel overly exhausted. Its been a year or more of trauma, fear, anxiety. And, not just for covid. Seeing the bad behavior around the election, and still on going denial, combined with those same people refusing to be vaccinated, still keeping covid alive and their believe in lies. It does not feel over yet, and it isn't, unfortunately.

@@PinkWytchBytch but have you actually watched the videos? I’ve seen his art/sketches/drawings etc... I wouldn’t have seen them anywhere other than on his channel. I know a lot of his videos are verbally communicated and some, including myself find it helpful, not verbose, a term which, to me atleast, suggests overly verbal.

If you don’t find content here, you can do two things. One, keep it to yourself, because none of us care about anything you have to say. Two, go find something in your life worth living for because you don’t sound like you have it, and while your out doing that we’ll all be here enjoying the mass of content this channel puts out. Whenever you find a set of manners, be sure to let us all know!
