Angry rant

[surreal lark]

I cant do this. I fucking hate my art, I fucking hate it. I am not competent, and I cant draw for shit compared to everyone else. Look at these little kids drawing better than me, and I am almost 16, with no common sense, no critical thinking, and little ability to fucking draw. I have been doing this for 10 years consistently, and 10 years hasn't gotten me too far, I still look like a fucking beginner, I cant animate for shit, I learn like a little kid, I hate it. I hate my art, and I hate myself. Im serious.

Do not compare yourself to others sure you aren't learning quick but you are learning... My friend you will always hate your art at least a little, that comes with the job and wanting to improve. I bet you have better art than me

[merry nova]

Maybe because your art style is different than others, if you're trying to copy an image to the point where it looks identical but it turns out different then try doing another style, then eventually you'll find yor art style. Take it from me, most of my art was shit until I found my art style

[misty dove]

Let me see the art

[surreal lark]

My art

[twin frost]

Your art is absolutely amazing!!!!!!! Makes me question why you hate it

[surreal lark]

I was told im not ready for comms

It kinda brought out my pent up hate for my art

The lack of talent I see in myself

[twin frost]

Please do remember there will always be someone better at art then you no matter what and those kids have likely been doing art for a long time and possibly has a parent or someone else help teach them tips and tricks for art

Also if you had comms available and I could afford it I would definitely get one!!!!! I absolutely love your art!!!!!❤️❤️

[surreal lark]

Thanks. Im always available if you want one

Im thinking about quitting my art

Ive never been amused by it nor truly proud

I will draw until my body hurts from sitting so long and it disappoints me

[merry nova]

Hey, if you want to quit that’s what you want, but if it’s a hobby then try to find your style, I’m not trying to force you to not quit, but if it’s something you’re passionate about then keep going.

[surreal lark]

Your status has a fair point

[dry terrace]

You're art is better than a LOT I've seen man, ngl I wish I was as good as you, I'm 16 as well and can barely draw a person but you're out here drawing master pieces

[surreal lark]

Thanks, it means a lot

I cant see the beauty in them but others having joy from seeing it is good

[dry terrace]

Np man, Im serious it's amazing

[merry nova]

… Your art is better than mine-

[lavish sundial]

Wat that's so pretty, I've been doing art since I was 3 with crayons and construction paper. And mine looks @$$

I tried can barely draw a full human I can barely even draw their hair.

if seeing ugly art makes you feel better about your own, ping me? (new to discord cuz I never rlly liked having a bunch of different apps for communication)

[radiant grove]

Dude comparing your art to others is a recipe for disaster, don’t be too hard on yourself
It’s unfair to do to yourself, everyone is different with this stuff
just because you don’t see your success or potential yet dosent mean you’re some failure

[surreal lark]

Thank you guys for being nice. Sometimes the idea of quitting pops into my head, and I contemplate it because of my lack of confidence

I will try to find my style, I dont think I've thought of that

[dry terrace]

Well that's the first part of the assignment>:) where's the three good things

[surreal lark]

Huh?

[surreal lark]

What does that mean?

[dry terrace]

The three good things about yourself, and I think that was in a different one but dang you can use it too ":)

My brain don't work right lol

[surreal lark]

Well uh I guess people like my art

And I guess im a good friend

And maybe I can make a lot of people laugh, I just need to get out there more
