why do people only care about my art if it's undertale related cough
i put so much effort into my other artworks, and as a human being, i have interests other than JUST undertale. and yet, when i show works for other fandoms or personal art on my socials, it flops. a big part of it is the algorithm, i know that. it is genuinely so discouraging and mentally draining. it feels like im forced into this little box of "you better keep shoveling out undertale art like a machine or you'll be forgotten !!" and causes me to distance myself further from enjoying myself when drawing UTAU art. it isn't fun anymore—it feels like a chore. do i really have to choose between my own happiness or my art getting the same attention it used to? is this what it's come down to?
i love undertale and the aus, and i don't plan on stopping creating fanworks for it any time soon. and i'm grateful that my art gets any recognition at all. it's just exhausting to keep up with.
