Drawing in 5 minute blocks multiple times per day is way better than not drawing and agonizing over it. If you can draw in longer blocks in the future then that's wonderful but something is better than nothing.
>>5947730Lower the pressure. Play around with what you know. Try some new brushes, play around with brush size, try sketching in different colors or on different colored backgrounds, etc.
Even if all you know how to do is draw lines or circles or cubes, just fuck around with that. Draw a cube with really warped perspective, or try to use some of the points of your first cube as vanishing points for another. Just do whatever.
Art is as much a skill of moving your arms as it is a skill of using your eyes or applying theory. Using your muscles to faff about may be just what you need to break through the wall later.
>>5947788Something we don't think about often is that skill development isn't linear. It isn't that all people progress at X rate per unit of time for the rest of their lives and anyone who started "late" is just fucked. Rate of growth is incredibly variable. Lifestyle (sleep, diet), health (disease, mental illness), time spent working, etc can all change the rate of growth. So it could be that there is something about your life ASIDE from drawing that you could change that would help you improve faster, or something happens to that artist that lets you "catch up". Diminishing returns also plays a factor, where the farther you are in a skill the more effort/time it takes to get to the next peak. If you've ever played an MMO or an RPG you know that in the amount of time it takes for a high level to advance by 1, a low level can advance by 10 or 20.
