Not getting much art done. The amount of pressure I put on myself and the awareness of how much of the basics I still have to learn has given me the chokes.
Minecraft is pretty aimless too. There's so much now that would have been unthinkable when I played many years ago, and because I made new worlds and have it on peaceful I am running into rare stuff or biomes almost constantly. There are so many new plants and biomes and blocks. But after initial excitement I don't feel any desire to take them, or build on them, or change anything.
I put it on creative intending to build and am kind of just flying aimlessly away from spawn admiring the scenery. Whenever I find a village I will stop and equip it with lightning rods.

Still kind of scarred by the game using a lightning bolt to randomly kill my tamed cat inside the house ๐กOne thing I learnt about art is that I'm always a beginner. Always. Every time I get new materials, new brushes, try a new technique it's like I'm back at zero. So learning the basics is normal and is a sign of success. Just persevere. :)
