You can air those grievances without seeming weird, we all do it.

You don't have to upload if you don't want for a while, but don't stop drawing. That's possibly the worst thing you could do to avoid this. You don't have to draw all the time, but don't flat out stop.

Try changing things up, and then going back to what was causing you so much frustration.

Ah yeah. But it's a bunch of mental problems that I feel like are making me lose sanity a little.

It's...not really that I'm frustrated at drawing in particular. I keep going through stages where I don't see the point in uploading things. I just get frustrated with myself when I upload something...like to tumblr.

that's okay. as long as you keep drawing and improve, you're allowed to have those stages.
it's not a bad thing if you choose not to upload stuff for a bit. that's your choice.
and I hope as far as the mental problems go that they can be abated or cleared up. *hug*

Weird? You're posting on a furry site. I carry around a day's worth of food most places I go and am afraid of TV static, if you want to talk about being weird.

There are a fair number of people from Bliz'sFriends that always seem to put their work down - it's not good enough for them, or it's not as good as someone else's, or it's copied off someone else's idea. Some have made it a habit not to look at their old art, a few people struggle with it anyway - like me, haha :q I keep saying my stuff isn't ready yet, but I've had that excuse for the better part of 6 years! You'd think I'd've finished something by now, but maybe I have some kind of inferiority complex about my writing.

And we're not just Bliz's friends, ether - we are YOUR friends too :3

I don't know what it'll take for you to feel better about your art ): MAYBE if posted a few things you can see if people have the same reactions to your art that you have (I think your work is pantsing adorable), or maybe you need to take care of something that's been bugging you for awhile.

Regardless of what happens, I wish you the best <3

That's not weird, that's awesome (well to the food part). I think everyone has their fair share of being afraid of having phobias that they consider weird (I'm afraid of bumpy, clustered holes but only in an organic sense like in real life nature or diseases on the body).

I know how that feels. I've been putting off a lot of drawings, writing and whatnot because I don't feel good enough? It just hurts a lot when you work on something and it's completely disregarded or made fun of. I've had people make fun of my art for being too anime-ish.

Yeah, I think I need to prolly draw a bit more...experiment with things so I'm not the same all the time with my art. I just have too many ideas and it's hard to initiate them and do them correctly. I do need to fix somethings though as well. At least, try to fix my horrible self-esteem.

Thanks! <3

*I* think its weird that I carry around meat and dairy products that can survive 5-10 years before spoiling. And San Francisco is has more than a few folk (i love them all) who eat local and shun super-processed food - I'm really out of my element here sometimes, haha

In the words of a wise man: fuck the haters. Anime is awesome and so are anime-style drawings, and the people who don't like anime are fine and dandy too but shouldn't be judging anime art.

And DCers aren't the kind that judge art at all! Pretty pictures are great, but any art beats no art! I personally like the intention behind drawings, personally - a 20 second lineart sketch depicting what happened when I visited a friend gets more Tai-time than the 6-hour masterpieces some other people do for a living. A few have mentioned things drawing on streams helps push your skills, or opening up a tumblr and drawing out simple doodles for all your answers.

Also sup fellow tryptophobic o/ There's something about swarms of dark things that gives me the shivers...I'm getting better with it I think, but the static has to be the weirdest thing that sets it off. Funny thing is, I used to stare at static once in awhile as a kid 9_6

I say at the least, start initiating more art! Figure out what works and what doesn't, and do what you like because YOU like it. Keep your stuff private if you need to, but don't burn out because you shut yourself off from your creative outlets.
