You inspire me to get off my ass and actually play around with facial expressions more, because you rock at them and I..don't.

Hell, your art in general can inspire me.

;-;

It's always so nice to hear something from an artist I admire.
I rarely hear nice things from people I admire, but I know I can count on you.

Love you, Mindz.
Thanks.

As long as you know I mean it!

Love you too, Finn. <3

You've got your very own, personal style of drawing. And I don't mean it in the way in which I tag something as 'interesting' because I can't find anything nice to say about it.

If you want to 'please the masses', stop being unique, adapt the style of 'popular' artists, and I'm sure many people will +fav all the pr0n immediately and forget your name, even if you put it nicely and readable with the signature.

If you want to please yourself, look at your drawings. They're good. They have proper anatomy, and they don't make anyone wonder what you were actually 'trying' to draw. But most of all, if you'd put 10 of your drawings together with 90 random pieces out of Furaffinitys library on a big stack, shuffle it, and magically remove all signatures, I'm pretty sure I'd be able to find those 10 again.

Fishing for compliments sometimes gives me just what I need to hear.
I really do appreciate reading that.
(And I haven't forgot I still owe you a little something.)

You're ridiculous, my friend. A complete failure? Oh no, not at all. You're an artist with great potential. Looking back on the crap I did just five years ago I'm surprised I wasn't like, "Fuck this, I fail. Done." But art makes me happy, its a way to express myself that I never get to do out in the real world. And I had my moments of extreme art blockage that could last months, sometimes caused by my lack of confidence in my art, but then I'd come around. You'll go through many changes in the way you approach your artistic style. Don't be afraid to experiment and draw total crap all day long that you don't have to share on the internet. Then hey, you might find something you like, which pushes you further, and TA DA! You feel better about your art! Because honestly, you're already great and I know for a fact you're only going to get better. Let yourself have those days where you feel like a total failure and go ahead and ask for comfort and compliments. I still need those days too.


Much love, you delightful thing....
