Do you ever get a commission where you want it to look just right, but can't get it there?
I've been slamming my head against the wall with a commission I'm working on. It doesn't feel right, and I dunno what I need to do to get it to right.

Something I read on twitter struck a cord with me as a artist, that might apply to you as well.

The thing about art, for me, is that I find some drawings just flow easily, effortlessly, and others, you have to drag yourself through them

People complain about artists taking so long: but sometimes, I just take forever to get a result I like because I have to stop, start over..

and let drawings rest for a while..And when I come back to them, everything looks different than before

Sometimes I go for weeks picking at a drawing, trying to get it right, and then suddenly one day, I wake up and know exactly how to do it
