Please Excuse This Self-loathing Rant
12 years ago
I have felt very down and unhappy about my artwork for at least the past 6 months. I try my best each and every time I draw something, unless I am just being silly and doodling, yet I feel like my art just isn't very good sometimes. Yes I sometimes rush myself, maybe because I am a bit impatient to see my final product, but I haven't been able to draw anything I have been satisfied with in a long time. I understand that I am not on the same level as other artists, but honestly, I am not trying to be. I am just tired of feeling like nothing I draw is even worth sharing with anyone else. I feel like I have no skills at times and my art is shitty...

I feel that way too a lot of the time.

OP
How do you keep yourself going when you feel so low?

I take a break and do something else that I enjoy. :) Like photography or baking or something.

Meep ;w; I feel that way about my writing sometimes. It was in my creative writing class the other day that my professor was talking about the Irish author James Joyce, and it took him over a decade to publish Dubliners. You must be persistent like Joyce and willing to share what you have created! :)
