Because it feels like everything is the same. As an example, if I tell myself I want to focus on color, that turns into focusing on light, how light hits an object, and then I realize i'm drawing the object wrong anyway, or the drawing isn't impactful, or the subject matter is bland. I just kind of jump around and take little bites of new knowledge and I don't know what to do with them.
I feel that my art is improving overall, and I am glad that I can look back and say my old art is still far worse than my current art, but doing studies doesn't help me feel satisfied with my art as a whole, what I do with it.
Then I convince myself I'll make my comic but I know I am not ready, I have no substance, I need to improve with backgrounds, need interesting angles, need solid colors, need characters.
And it is so intensely discouraging when one night I can't draw anything worth shit and another night I feel that my art is more accurately representing my thoughts.
