I'm in the same boat OP. Not sure if my visual memory is inferior or if I'm doing something wrong. I visualize and move around stuff in my head but still forget those objects pretty soon

I've been out of the art game for half a year now after getting way to caught up in technique, improvement, and endless sheets of figure drawing. I became somewhat successful, had a steady following, and was doing commission work, but at some point my love for the hobby dulled and my creative drive seemed to dry up.

I'm rusty as hell but figure I don't want to give up on the hobby I once enjoyed so much. Are there any good books or videos to reintroduce me to art touching on the foundational skills but also giving advice on actually creating art and learning to enjoy the process?

I need a less rigid approach, view, and workflow.
