That ever-growing self doubt...
2 years ago
Hello fans, friends and everyone else who comes here for my content.
I dont expect anyone to read this but i'll put it down anyway...
I must apologize for my massive lack of content lately...
I'm... currently going through a phase where i question my ability to create and entertain...
I feel like everything i do is wrong somehow or doesnt look good. That im not a good artist and cant do anything correctly. And its eating me from the inside.
So bad that i get anxiety just by picking up my pencil. And immediatelt get hit by anxious self doubt and feeling of "wrongness"...
I dont know how to combat this doubting... andbi hate where i am.... but as long it keeps going... i cant create. Entertain... to produce worksbyou people love so much.
I dont feel like the aetist im supposed to be. And i lack the self-confidence to believe i am.
If you read this far, thanks for hearing me out.
Sincerely apologetic...

Maybe you need to diversify a bit what you draw. Chose a random topic for yourself. Something you enjoy but what doesn't make younfeel like you gotta please your followers with. Perhaps you can draw more relaxed then and the anxiety loosens.
Which in turn feeds the self doubnting. Which affects motivation and drive.
It's a frustrating cycle.
But still... i appreciate the support. every single one chips a piece off of those unwarranted doubts and fears.

You've probably seen this, but it still holds true :>
I was never good at dealing with said poison.
I still remember the two 2018 December pictures you drew for me and I still enjoy them a lot. ^.^
I appreciate your kind words, friend. Thank you.
Your a great artist and I still love that Mina pic you did and it's still one of my top favorite UW art.
i appreciate your kind words, my friend. Really chips away some of that doubt knowing how wrong I am thinking this way
