Drawing injury or art block? Here is my most in-depth video on this topic!

I got so many questions about arm injuries, artblock and mental health, so I decided to make my most honest, in-depth video yet about hitting artistic roadblocks. Injuries, anxiety, or lack of ideas and inspiration: these are all things that can bring your creative journey to a complete standstill! Even though they are all different, they tend to follow the same pattern, and we can learn a lot by taking a closer look at them.

In this 45 minute long video, you'll learn:

What a roadblock is: the different forms it can take, and the patterns that they tend to follow
How to avoid hyperfocusing on symptoms, and instead zoom out and assess your roadblock in a way that allows you to see the bigger picture
How to learn and grow from a roadblock so that you don't repeat the same pattern in the future

As an added bonus, this video also comes with a worksheet to help you figure out how to move past an artistic roadblock!

This is a resource for any artist who has hit a roadblock and is looking for advice! I take a deep dive into the things that have helped me in the past, and break it down into a comprehensive list of 14 different tools that might help you overcome it - and, most importantly, keep it from happening again. In my 22 years of creating digital art, I've got so many suggestions, and they are all in this video. Watch it here!
