For me it's a little bit of everything but mostly no time. And that I'm still a kid.

Biggest obstacle in improving my art:
- I have that habit of drawing something and then not finishing it.
- I'm lazy
- I don't think out of the box/ I'm not thinking of new ideas/ I'm not just creative enough
*Hey! This is actually helpful! At least I know now what I need to overcome to improve my art

pretty much all of the above here
schools a beat down, I get on for about 30 min.s tops every now and again
I get such bad mind blanks, but when the idea comes, it sure does come
I live with six people soon to become nine
broke isn't even the start, I minds well be in the negitives(only I don't owe anyone money
)
I try to get better on my own and look at tutorials but I have like a handi cap where I can't learn from computers

Those sound like pretty challenging conditions. Hmm well, I hope the Hospital can help you at least a little. You never know, circumstances may change. Thanks for commenting!

I tend to get distracted easily. I have trouble keeping focused on one thing at a time.

I'm distracting myself right now.
I'm supposed to be working on a project.
