I will gladly do so when I am awake tomorrow!

I kinda absolutely adore your work <3

Drawing is for the purpose of drawing and not for the purpose of producing a finished piece. In time the finished pieces will produce themselves. So long as you do the act you are improving. If its guided, improving greatly. If it's frustrated, minutely. But you are improving.

Hmmmmm
I feel like when I look at your work, it seems like you are lost. Not that you're work isn't good, but it seems like you don't have a real clear direction, that you're not putting in as much effort as you might otherwise.
My work had that going on for a while my freshmen year in college, (even now sometimes) I liked drawing, but I didn't really have a reason for drawing and my art just kind of wandered around. I didn't know what to do, I had even tried to draw porn (I'm terrible at drawing porn)
So I looked to my influences for inspiration, I've always liked Brian Froud and Mucha, and I liked a lot of artist on FA, so I looked at their work and tried to replicate their style, but of course that kinda morfed into my own style, and then I started building a story, so when I draw it's usually to illustrate that story.
I wanted my art to reflect myself as well, so sometimes when it's cartoony it's because I'm feeling bubbly, and silly and other times my art takes on a more serious tone.
So maybe if it helps, try and look at the artist you like, pin point what it is about their work you like so much, and try to make it happen for yourself. Obviously some things are harder than others, try and build on your strengths, and gain confidence.

Well I hope that helps, If it doesn't I hope you know that you are a good artist and that you have a lot of potential to be even more fantastic than you already are, and don't worry too much about it. We all get to feeling bad about our art.

Thank you doodlepad! It did help me a lot
And yes, I am lost. A lot of the art I put up on here I only work on for an hour, tops, because I tell myself "what's the point?" I know, it's dumb but I can't help but feel that way. I guess that most of why I feel this way is the lack of confidence and patience.
I mean, sure I'll work several hours on my assignments but I don't really like how those turn out either.

Confidence is hard! Raargggghh

Life drawing.

Every time someone gets like this I post this link :v

Namely... get over it and draw more, then draw real stuff! (Or as said - life drawing.)

You need more antlers. You aren't horny enough.

Art night on Friday, we can have a powwow.

Something I wished someone had told me earlier is to have a well defined idea or where you want to go or what you'd like to do with your art. Don't just say "I want to get better at art" or "I want to get a job", because those start to be really vague and can't really be defined or mapped out.

Having a well defined goal, like I'd like to be able to draw more backgrounds in proper perspective, or I'd like to be better at render organic forms by studying insects, will let you better create a plan on how to achieve that goal and ultimately grow as an artist. Ultimately though, knowing yourself as a person and what kind of art you'd like to be making are the first real steps towards getting on a good path of self improvement.

Also Chris' journal that was linked earlier is super informative.

Hope that helps!

Thank you! You did help a lot.
I really don't have much purpose or direction at the moment, and setting goals would really help a lot.

I know it might not be the answer you want to hear, but there's a fantastic book called "The Artist's Way", a kind of self-help book that will change your entire perspective in creativity and life itself. You'll never go back <3 I hope you find what you're looking for. Just don't let all those negative feelings and thoughts mire your ability to create and feed the artist in you.

"The Artist's Way: a spiritual path to higher creativity"? If that's the one then they have it at my library!

That's the one! It couldn't hurt to give it a try c: I hope you get your groove back soon!
