so of late I have been struggling with art. As you can tell if you have been following me or any of you who still log into DA to upload or share art.I know it has gotten worse and many top level artists including Tyler Edlin, Marc Brunet , Peter Mohorbacher have said that Deviant art is now almost in its Grave.please don't let that happen, before I get into that again i would like to just talk about a few new things i have learned and a few ways i have come across beating art block and with the amount of A.I that is on the site it really is getting out of hand.so every time i want to paint i can't even draw and i have done so much work the last three four years which has almost taken me away completely from drawing, painting or any form of concept design.and yes it is true i see now why when artists leave the concept industry they produce amazing works and amazing paintings , drawings, photos or 3d renders.I have seen in the game and concept industry its really a hard press and the

I am sure all of you share my view that when i say that each of us when we see our favorites folder we see how amazing
