Post-reception letdown is a common thing, particularly when you're working hard to create new works for the show. I always go through a period of "now what?" afterward. Like you said, I can get through it by getting some mindless-but-necessary work done, trying some new techniques, journalling, and similar activities. Gotta give the creative juices some time to rejuvenate themselves. They always do, although it may take some time.
