Watched
20 years ago
Okay, I think that I will always feel a bit nervous when an actually GOOD artist watches me... because I know i can draw and such and that My pictures aren't utter crap and such... but I also know that it's one of those things that I really have to work hard on and struggle over sometimes because it doesn't come to me all that easily. I mean I sometimes don't even draw anything for the longest of times until something just pops up.
I don't have a steady hand for inking or the patience for coloring so most all of my stuff now is just penciled and dirty.
Then I have artists, good [better] artists watching me without solicitation... y'know even the watch-backs count since there's no real obligation for it... even out of formality... it's weird... but uplifting too y'know...
Kinda thinking Ho' Shit... I can actually be considered among peers like this, even if A bit of me screams and Emos about not being up to cut. Makes me work that much harder for it y'know... that illusory zen of art that seems to radiate from all these people I look up to... working with care, determination and true effort, creating pieces which seem as though they were not of labor, but of some strange coalescence of mind and color, merely born into existence.
Of course, I think before that Happens I need to go through a few coloring books Xb.

One thing goes wrong and I just lose it, then I can't finish the pic at all.
if people dont like what i draw they should not be watching me so as i said i tend not to worry about it and you should not do either
just do the best you can
To learn to be better so that I can make things when I'd like and do what I want with art rather than popping out a picture because things just seem to come out right like that.
and you can only do the best you can
for a lot of artists a picture just pops out right because of a fluke
some of my better works starte doff as something totally differnt
thats just the way it is
Hmm... the first person I work hardsts for, is myself when I start drawing and painting. If its up to snuff for someone else isn't my problem, is what I am thinking. There may be a few exceptions though...
and how did I find this journal and post randomly? ... Randomly ofcorse!! Jumping around pages.. -=^_^=-
Heeh, it's weird though. I think my best art just comes from coincidence, I eventually just pop with an idea and BAM it goes...
Still, awesome thanks for a random post from an awesome artist.
You don't need that. Just take it slow and make sure you have support for your arms hands and all. You may just need to try something new.
But whatever the case just keep in practice.
