First Journal-why bother and where's the color?
13 years ago
Ever wonder if you should even bother with something? Personally, I often find myself doubting myself. Am I good enough? Am I skilled enough? Would it be better for everyone if I just didn't show up?
Many of my dreams will likely never come true. I'll never make a movie or video game. I'll never be a rock star or inventor. I'll probably never finish a novel and my drawings will probably always be crude.
I'm currently trying to color my Na'vi doll drawing with my computer's Paint program since I lack any real art programs. It will be a first, since my only other option is to leave it a crude, colorless picture. I know it's sad. I know it's a pathetic drawing crudely inked with a writing pen, scanned on an aging scanner, and left black and white (no gray) because I don't have any fancy programs.
I don't care how pathetic my art is. It's my art. I may be an artist of questionably skill, but I know what my flaws are artwise. I know how to work around them and that's what's important. That's why I don't care.
Why care? Who's going to see my art? Random people accidentally stumbling onto my art because I don't have any real fans. At least it gets seen or read, whatever the case might be.
And to everyone who wants me to make art for them, you don't exist because nobody wants me to make art for them. If I'm wrong and you do want me to make something for you, it's free since I don't have a Paypal account or any other real method of recieving peyment other than you tracking me down and handing me the money.
