I'm trying to wedge my arms through my monitor to give you a proper hug, but it's not working and my cat's looking at me funny. So have a lame virtual hug instead!
*SQUEEEEEEEZE <3*

You don't understand, Frost's Cat! ;_;

Haha, thank you dude. I needed the virtual hug. I'm just sort of at this crossroads in my art project, where i'm wondering if its a big waste of time, or whether it will be appreciated by the person it's for, or whether I should even bother. My heart tells me to finish. my head calls me stupidhead. :C

Art is never a waste of time :3
I'm sure whoever it's for will appreciate it! It's hard not to appreciate something that someone else made just for you.

If only my family agreed with you, lol. Maybe then they'd let me major in art like I'd like to. :P

I'm sure they will like it.. It's just a matter of... Will they know why I made it, or will they understand the significance of the piece? I find it really hard to say exactly what I mean. A lot of the time I say the wrong things or people take what I say the wrong way so I just dont say much anymore.. but I put my feelings into my art because art speaks to people on so many levels.

I sorta feel lame though. I sorta know that no matter how much art I give this person; It probably won't amount to much. Mehh, maybe they can sell it all, to get to someplace they'dlike to go. -virtual hug!- I'm sorry for the rant, my friend. :C

Ahhh, I see. I get what you mean. Well, best case scenario they get the meaning of it, worst case scenario they don't but still appreciate the fact that you made them something?
I wouldn't say that. I've got friends I've drifted from and rarely speak to anymore who still have cards I drew for them years and years ago because it made them smile. I think it means a lot to people when you give them art you made.

And you can rant to me anytime! No need to apologize.

I hope something like that happens. Although.. this is a rather big piece of art, and regardless of whether they like it or not it's gonna be hard to store ^^; The good thing about cardboard though is, it is already folded and can tuck away nicely if you can find a place to slide it :)

I'm hoping you all get a smile out of it too. it really is a big project and i'm going all out on it. If you like cats, turtles, and mushrooms, get ready for a big surprise. c:

Oh man, I'm excited! :D

Listen to your art. Let it guide you. Who cares if others don't love your art as much as you do. By a long shot, you probably made people jealous on how good you are. x3

-hugs really, REALLY tight, though meaningful-

Your head is trying to slow you down, don't let it. :)

It may sound silly, but I think you're right. Because even though i'm not a dude: He+art=heart. or... something. ^^;

It's not really a matter of "Will they like/love it", it's more a matter of "i know it wont make the situation any better for me, so what's the point of trying anymore?" I know that sounds selfish.. It's just not the first time i've tried to express myself through my art to this person. It feels like I just dont have what it takes to get through to 'em. Right now i'm putting everything into this artwork to show how much I truly care about this person. It's really the best way I know how to express myself, and while it aint gonna be a big giant heart or anything; it will be coming from the heart.

I just feel really bad for making all of you guys wait for your art. I promise they will some and they will be good. I've also put a bunch of my side projects on hold.. none of this is for me, and hopefully it'll be some consolation when i upload the finished pieces and you all can enjoy it too. :)

-returns the hug- Thank you, pal.

Do what you love to do, no rushing now. :)

Plus don't worry about stopping side projects just for this one, your heart is big enough that our hearts collide into something big! Just hope we don't drown everyone though..that would be bad. x3

But all and all, keep doing what you love and have no worries for making people wait. What is a fan if they got no patience?

-nods and smiles- Your Welcome, pallie pal.

If people could just pop through the screen that would freak me out, I would never feel safe hahaha

Hmmmm....




...Good point. xD
Okay, how about.. If anyone you chose to could come through the screen, and they had mutual agreement that they'd like to? Sort of like.. a pop up blocker, haha :P

That works XD

well here *gives you mad amounts of hugs* <3
you ain't gotta pay em back for hugs are free :3

Awe, okay okay, hugs are free.. But that doesn't mean I wont pay you back anyway! -bear hug- n_n
Thanks, buddy.

heh <3
no worries
you are having a hard go I take it? what's up if I may? :)

You know the theoretical saying when someone is dragging themselves behind a cart, just hanging on and hpong something good will come from being torn to shreds, like the faintest glimpse the cart may stop and you will be rewarded with whatever lay inside?

Yeah, me neither. xD

Anyway, i've been in a situation lately where theoretically speaking i've been dragged around but continue to hold on hoping.. well.. you read the first part already. :P I don't want to let go of a situation even though it's ripping me apart inside. Because theres that tiny glimmer of hope there.

Somewhere in the back of my mind i think that my project may solve all of my problems, but it is highly unlikely. Gonna keep trying though; I have got to get this done.

-huggggg-
