Okay so... sometimes i like to try draw pixel art when i have the idea and the will, but i want to try draw more often to improve myself. I know that the biggest suggestion is "draw/sketch everyday, even the smallest things but don't stop drawing" but, even if i tried, i end up to draw for 2/3 days (the time i need to finish a little drawing or a concept) and then come back after 2/3 weeks when i have again the will/idea and the energy to draw after work. So i wanted to ask you guys what is your advice to stop procastinate on doing art?

Is it really procrastination? It sounds like you're just tired from work and have other stuff going on. I wouldn't sweat it. Maintaining any sort of hobby as an adult is hard. Do it when you can, but don't beat yourself up if you can't.

On a sidenote, I'd be down if you would like to do a weekly draw prompt or wip thread for extra motivation.

Hmmm... sounds like an idea... But yeah, i didn't want to say that i have work and other stuff to do cause i thought that it will sound like an excuse to procastinate.
