Eugh (personal Vent Rant)
9 years ago
So my dad just sent me another link with the details for an internship for some animation studio in Germany.
And like.... I'm not an animator??
I CAN animate, but that isn't my specialization. Yes, my course says "Cartoon and comic art" but so far of the 8 modules I've studied only one was animation and another one was one where we had to use a software that animated stuff FOR us with a bit of tinkering. Like... the amount of attention my parents pay to my work is not a lot and it's a bit concerning because like.... They should at least understand the difference between animation and illustration but it seems like they don't care??
SO like... just a reminder, I'm a Comic artist/ Fantasy Illustrator/ Character Designer. Those are my artist labels. In that order.
You guys get that! And I mean this is just a vent because it made me a bit cranky that my own parents don't seem to really get what I'm doing with my life which is disappointing. My father in law is literally buying the preorders from me to support me and my parents don't really seem to CARE that I have preorders.
It's a bit of a shame when your own parents don't tell you they're proud of you. (Ok yeah sorry this is starting to get like super personal and whatnot feel free to ignore this entire journal if you want) I have been really long without a lot of validation and a lot of people have taken advantage of me for free art and I never received a word of gratitude from them until I met Ulric and his family like... HIS MOM IS SUCH A SWEETHEART I CAN'T EVEN. His mom tells me to look after myself and not push myself so hard cuz I'm worth it and his dad always tells me he's proud of me and that I'm such a hard worker.
I don't.... get that from my parents???
And then they tell me that Ulric isn't a suitable partner for me because he has a hard time finding a job!! Like.... FUCK!!! OFF!!!!! Ulric has literally stopped me from fucking myself up big time!!
