10,000 Hours - Art

I feel like I'm moving backwards in my artistic ability.

I know that's not true at all and I can see where I'm improving when I draw things but I feel like it's becoming work, and that's not what I want at all; I'm trying to learn how to draw because I want to have fun drawing. My daily exercises are starting to feel like chores, not like something fun.

I'm not entirely sure what to do about that; I need to work on it daily to keep improving but I also need it to be fun.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
