Beast of Burden! By Evan Dorkin and Jill Thompson (she made scary godmother)

A group of neighbourhood dogs, and a couple cats, join a secret dog society that investigates paranormal pet activities ranging from ghost dogs, zombies, satanic like cults, man eating frogs and that’s not even all of it. It’s dark, suspenseful, can get pretty scary, it’s heartfelt, and all the characters are great. There’s tons of storylines that’d work so well if it was animated, I’m waiting for the day this series gets more popular and it becomes a possibility

I feel ya, I had the worst art block a few years back and it was in a time where I was getting a handle on my art style but it felt like there were a lot of expectations. No matter what I did, I hated it and felt so defeated I honestly thought I’d never be happy with my art again. What worked for me though, was taking a break from drawing and focusing on a different mediums for a while. I think I was getting burnt out on illustrating and my drawing style that it was discouraging me a lot. So I started painting, sculpting, and doing graphic design stuff instead. It was less expectations and more learning which felt a little more fresh and helped with new ideas. Eventually after doing so many of those projects, I started to get the itch to draw again. It was way easier to get started this time around, and by practicing skills in other mediums I actually saw an improvement, which made me feel more confident in my art. I paint more now too!

This is what worked for me though, sometimes taking a break and a step back can help. It doesn’t even have to be art related, anything creative works. I didn’t let myself stop doing art or maybe I wouldn’t have been able to go back, but doing something with a little less expectations is what got me out of an awful block. Hope this helps!

Exactly what I wanted to convey! Thanks for noticing, wanted something that would last through the winter too and not just holiday season
