do people really just

sit

and draw

just for hours on end

do nothing but sit and draw

how do you get that kind of focus

by that time i’ve gotten distracted five times, gotten frustrated or bored three times, and been killed by an oncoming train at least once

Sometimes I can get into a modeling project that I’ll do that. Can’t do it with painting though, have to keep taking breaks.

This is the only way I can actually draw stuff. Long unending sessions of nothing but me sitting in a chair and moving a pen around. Not that I want to; it just sort of happens. Immerse in music, start a couple lines, and suddenly 8 hours pass and the thing is done. Breaks come in the form of checking Skype and also bathrooms.

This mildly bad habit is the reason I’ve been having trouble finding time to draw in college. >_>
