Sometimes, I feel like my art is pretty bad. It's mostly because I tend to compare my work to other's(which a terrible habit...) and it's a little disheartening always knowing that I can't measure up to my expectations. It drives me nuts... But then I realize, I could much worse off than I am right now as an artist. I got accepted to my top school and I get to study art fully.
I had the opportunity to take advantage of the great art program at my high school. And I certainly don't regret my decision to become an artist. I've been asked several times what I'd want to do if I wasn't going into art. I could never come up with an answer anymore. If it works out then great! If it doesn't then I'll just have to try something else, right? Maybe I'll become successful. That'd be nice... But it's kind of unlikely that'll get my dream job. Maybe one of these days I'll finally pluck up the courage to get a table in an artist alley with a friend or two. But right now, I'm going to get back to finishing these commissions.
