you know that quirky feeling when they’re the same age you but they draw 5x better than you so because of that you try to improve your art so that you can feel worthy and good about yourself but it’s failing horribly and you suffer a mental breakdown yea that’s been my past year and a half :) I know I shouldn’t be comparing my art to others but it’s so hard now because the people that are better than me I follow/check their profile every week or so- its just that everything about their art is amazing and I should be there too, my shading skills are absolutely awful dude- i cant even draw a mouth anymore without judging the positions. Flipping my canvases when I’m done with work just sends me down a spiral of pain how do I draw ‘good’ I don’t even know anymore turning teenager is starting off great
My comfort oc; Yuuha definitely unsharing this soon sorry not sorry update: leaving this shared so others can vent- didnt know that much people felt the same, remember that art is just a hobby and shouldn’t be a chore for you, pls take care of urselves you deserve it <3
