Anyone else feel like their whole life is their art?
I love drawing and creating in general. I've had a very positive relationship with making art for over a year now and it's all I ever want to do. But I've been feeling really guilty about how much time I devote solely to work on whatever project I started. I can't bring myself to do any hobbies I have because I'd rather be drawing. I have to force myself to put down the pen and go be a human, and I often fail to. I'm not a total recluse, but I don't really get out much and have no desire to. Some people have told me that my life shouldn't revolve on a singular thing. And I agree, but I don't know how to break away from constant practice. If I even want to, or if I even have to. I recently declined a once in a lifetime opportunity for me (a two week trip across the world, fully paid by a family member) because I wouldn't have time to work on my projects during those two weeks. I don't want to continue my education because I want more time to devote to art. But I'm worried I'm going to end up depriving myself or even wrecking my life because I'm so tunnel visioned on art.
