DON'T BE SCARED TO DRAW!
11 years ago
A little word, from the bottom of my soul...
People, Artists, Beginers like Confirmed, Professionnal like Hobbyist....
STOP BEING SCARED OF DRAWING!
_ Stop being scared of haters rolling on you for drawing a pose you LOVE.
_ Stop being scared of people telling you that what you LOVE is wrong.
_ Stop being scared of people not loving the style you LOVE.
_ Stop being scared of people harrassing you because you do what you LOVE.
_ Stop being scared of people that judge you on what you LOVE.
_ Stop being scared of showing what you LOVE.
_ Stop being scared of venting yourselves in Art.
_ Stop being scared of upping your prices if you feel under-paid.
_ Stop being scared of saying NO.
_ Stop being scared of assuming yourselves.
_ Stop being scared of showing off your talent.
+ Because poses are not copyrighted to anyone.
+ Because we all love different things.
+ Because each style is UNIQUE and worth it.
+ Because if they run after you, it's because you worth it, and you can always block them.
+ Because you are YOU, not what you love, and we don't decide what we love.
+ Because it's ok to let know people that we enjoy some things more than others.
+ Because it's better outside than inside, and drawing is better than bullying/violenting someone else!
+ Because you WORTH it and you put hard time, efforts and LOVE in your work!
+ Because you have the RIGHT to not wanting drawing some stuff!
+ Because you are YOU, and no one can ever change it, never forget that accepting yourself is the most important thing, and you DESERVE it.
+ Because if you have it, SHOW IT.
DON'T BE SCARED BECAUSE YOU ARE A BEGINER.
Each Confirmed artist were drawing shits at the begining. You CAN'T be a kind of "lvl over 9000" born.
Being Confirmed means WORKS, PRACTICE, DOODLE, LEARN HOW TO LOVE WHAT YOU DO, DEVELOP SELF-ESTEEM, BELIEVE IN YOURSELF, DOESN'T BEING SCARED OF TRYING NEW THINGS.
Mixt things togheter, draw any shit you want. Mixed potatoe-cheese-watermelon-dog! WHO CARES.
Try to make it look cute, GIVES YOURSELVES MINI-GOALS.
Fuck off the judgement of others when you post that potatoe-cheese-watermelon-dog! Fuck their judgement! Who cares if they loves it or no, if YOU loves it?
IT'S YOUR ART.
YOUR CREATION.
YOUR LOVE.
PIECE OF YOU.
DON'T BE SCARED OF IT.
EXPRESS IT.
LET.
IT.
OUT.
Imagination and creation have NO LIMITS.
Never be scared of exploring new styles, new tricks, painting, brushes, whatever, even if you are an confirmed professional. TRY.
Try cost NOTHING and can makes you discover a way to improove when you think it's impossible and that you have reach your limit.
NO.
LIMIT.
There's some people that lives their life enjoying colors that others have merged to get something.
and
There's some people that lives their life playing with those colors.
It's with working without taking care of the "known-things" limits that we discover new things.
And it apply to everything...
Science...
Food...
Animals...
Drawing...
No limits.
SO TO ALL OF YOU.
Yes, YOU, that are scared to post/do your drawings, STOP BEING SCARED.
SHOW YOURSELVES.
SHOW YOUR HEARTS.
We WANT to see the colors that your soul want to put on the paper/digital canvas.
SHOW US.
AND FUCK THE JUDGEMENT.
SHOW YOUR COLORS.

Such a strong and helpful push of motivation!
it means a lot to hear someone say that
especially as an artist who has no self confidence
within his own art and has trouble seeing the beauty in it
especially when he sees all the other beautiful art that his
doesn't and can't ever stand up to...thank you
from the bottom of my heart...thank you
This.
And this.
I don't often draw due to needing practice, but this helps me out quite a bit.
I got alot of hate for how crappy my drawings can be. x.x
If i could fave journals i would.
You are such a wonderful person hun.
may I share this to everyone to? :)
All in all though, that is pretty great. It sounds even better when listening to 'Just The Way You Are' by Bruno Mars. X3
The area in tumblr that I've gotten caught in is absolutely toxic, and it's gotten to the point that I'm afraid to draw and wont post things because I know I'm not up to everyone's standards.
And this helps a lot in telling me that I shouldn't be afraid.
Screw all of them.
I can draw whatever I want.
For years until recently I have been very down, scared, and self conscious about my art style and art talents.. Always trying to be as good as someone on here, but never felt satisfied or happy because I always thought there was some artist who was better and more talented then I.
It was too the point where I would break down and almost give up on drawing..
But now, thanks to my mate and friends. I have accepted my own art style and instead of trying to copy someone elses art style, I stay true to my own style and continue to improve it.
I will show my work for now on thanks for the courage Cynn
I'm done being afraid.
Thank you.
