Recently I've just been feeling really insecure and bad about my art. I've been trying to draw realistic humans and it's hard and I feel like only a few people have faith in me. They all look really terrible and I was just hoping kind of like the dinosaurs it would kind of click, but it hasn't yet, not at all. I wish I could draw better cartoon characters, but I can't, it's just so hard. I feel like none of my family understands my art style, and I guess that's why I want to try realism. I just want them to be amazed at what I can draw. Idk, I'm having a really big inner struggle. I wish I could just impress myself and be happy with that, but I can't. I want to be able to impress others, I want people to look up to me and say, "wows she's amazing," And I sound pretty dumb saying that. But I just feel like a nobody sometimes. I have really bad self-esteem, and I'm just struggling with some of my friendships. I just kinda want to disappear for a bit and find myself. I want my art to click, and finally, be a good artist. I'm sorry, I just feel so insecure and need to put it somewhere TvT
And another thing, I just feel fake. I can only draw dinosaurs by looking at pictures/drawings of them(NOT tracing, that's different). I mean, I did draw this one t-rex without looking at anything, but otherwise, I need to look at a picture. It just makes me feel like a fake artist... Ofc I still draw because it makes me happy sometimes, but it just doesn't feel the same... Even though I really do love drawing dinos XD it doesn't make sense And I wouldn't ever draw something without giving credit to the original, never ever.
