. Hello lovely people . Have you ever seen someone’s art and thought to yourself “Oh woah that’s so good! I wish I could draw that well..” As an artist youre constantly comparing yourself to what other people do, say and think. Even Art School is just letting other people judge you about how skilled you are to make you question your ability and talents. Do yourself a favor and stop thinking you have to be good at drawing/whatever your talent is. You don’t have to be good at what you do. As long as you enjoy it and it makes you happy, that’s all that should matter. Recently I’ve been feeling like if people don’t like my work, then I must not be good at anything. Looking at how many likes my posts get makes me question if I should even consider myself an Artist. The reason you do what your good at is because you enjoy doing it. What you enjoy doing should never become a chore or some task you do for other people to like you. Do what you enjoy for yourself and only you. Some of the most famous artists aren’t even that good at it! All forms of art are about being Original and Creative. Try to be as unique as possible, do something no one else has thought of before. That’s how most series/movies/books get popular. Go out of the Norm and have fun while you do it. Draw what you like, you don’t have to go too far out of your comfort zone, do whatever makes you happy. You can even make money out of it or become famous just by not caring about what other people say/think about your skills. Dont look at how many likes your post has, that doesn’t matter. Just be yourself and be creative. And if the doubt in yourself is getting too strong, try another hobby! Nobody’s the best at anything. All it is, is believing that you’re better than what you think. You’re always gonna be you’re worst critic. Nobody’s thinking the negative thoughts you are. Take a deep breath, drink some water and please, understand that you’re doing so much better than you can imagine. And fix your posture! Thanks for reading.
