Feel Good Note!
8 years ago
I just came to realize something.
I am always really anxious when drawing something for someone, because im too scared that the quality i provide is not enough, especially if their skill is way above my own.
But I realized just now, if you are working on something for someone, they KNOW what you can do, and they accepted the Trade/Commission etc. for a reason, don't be scared, they will appreciate it!
With that said, do not take it as a given as saying ok they know its gonna be this and this ill just wing it, NO, still try to always do the best you can, but don't push yourself saying you're not good enough.
Again if they accepted they know what your level is and they'll be happy with whatever you'll come up with, don't put yourself down.
You are always your biggest critique. :)
And you are ALWAYS better than you think you are. You just don't see it as much as anyone else does, but they all appreciate you
And if you still think you're not good enough, don't beat yourself up on it, study! And Look forward to learning, don't see it as a must because you HAVE to get better, look forward to doing something and improving as a side effect by doing so, art should be fun, not stressful, so try to just do that, have fun with it, no matter what it looks like right now, the skill will come with time~
So have a great day, I hope this may cheer up some of you and I'll try to do more motivational journals.
Love y'all!!
