Failed as an artist (also an update lol)
a year ago
I have failed as an artist
Its my duty to draw things blowing the fuck up and I have not delivered adequate results
Okay okay, clickbait lol, hey you were gonna read it regardless
Jokes aside I feel like the things I have been drawing while fun dont really reflect what I really want to be drawing deep down. No real problem with doing art for fun but I feel like I havent been delivering very well on the aspect I keep trying to get myself to do but never actually achieve anything with: World building. But its not just about that though and my lack of doing anything with it, I feel like ive been trying to approach it too.. Rationally. I got into art because I wanted creative freedom to draw things that made little to no sense in the most extravagant ways but trying to piece ideas together based on sense and realism is stiffing my natural bullshitty-ness that got me here! Not to say that Im throwing out all reason, I just need a good outlet for my creativity and my current art isnt itching it which is the big take away here. What am I going to do? Uuuh I dont know yet which brings me to another point... My wrists still hurt, ive taken a break and its gotten better but i tried drawing recently and it hurts still. Mix that with having to do a lot of typing and writing for class and so I think its gonna take longer than a week to feel free of this mild irritation. Itll give me lots of time to think about what the hell im doing and why I even bothered writing about this. Just to feel better about myself I guess (and also so I dont forget in a day) XD
Wont be completely bored out of my mind, I started a book series "The Machineries of Empire" and man I have never knew a military science fiction book could be so angsty lol. I like this Jedao character, who knew a mass murdering traitor could be so amusing
TLDR: My current art isnt scratching my creative itch, wrist still hurts, and I DO think Jedao is a closet furry and theres no such thing as coincidentally gifting your brother a furry card deck!
