PSA: Don't draw with music.

>Have trouble focusing?
Don't draw with music.
>Quality of work is dipping?
Don't draw with music.
>Drawing seems boring compared to surfing the web?
Don't draw with music.
>Getting urges to play games or watch anime?
Don't draw with music.
>Work takes more and more time to complete?
Don't draw with music.

Drawing in silence is the key to flow state. Hearing the scritch scratch of the pencil is what soothes the artistic soul.

I can atest to this, I have an easier time focusing when there's absolute silence
Whenever I put on something in the background it will eventually finish, and it is in that moment that I will subconsciously break my flow state to put on something new and also browse the web for a little bit (a few hours) and then get back to my drawing

Thank you, anon, thank you for your concern
But it really depends, I have ASD and for me some stimuli helps me sleep, like the noise from a vacuum cleaner. I won't give a concrete answer because I don't have it, but it just does
And repetitive music helps me a lot to get into the zone and concentrate
Otherwise I just start getting these urges you mention, but I don't doubt some people could find your advice helpful, it's just a matter of knowing yourself

>>6707560
Be consistent, don't overdo yourself and know your limits
Your brain is an animal and if it gets "scared" of work it will learn to flee from it, or find ways to evade it. You need to build trust from stuff you don't find pleasant to do, like studying. If you can train your brain to lower it's guard whenever presented to unpleasant activities it will be a breeze

I like instrumental music for generating dialogue, since lyrics throw me off. Otherwise, when straight drawing, I listen to all sorts of stuff, from gaming streamers to audiobooks.

My negro I have over 1200 songs on my phone, I would literally have to keep my earbuds in for a week straight to "run out", and that's not even mentioning that I could listen to certain songs and albums that I really like over and over without getting tired of them.

I can't do two things at once, not even if one of them is listening to music. I don't listen to music while drawing, walking, working, studying, playing video games (besides their own soundtrack), or anything else. When I listen to music I sit down and think about the music itself. I memorize it and then I replay it in my head when I do other things. I don't understand how people can always have music on. I wouldn't focus neither on the music nor on the other task.

I don't draw with actual music, usually always chill video game music or something similar. It becomes white noise when I get in the zone and helps block external noises outside my room.
