that looks really good and sweet ^^

Very nice. ^.^ You always do such amazing work, both in drawing and writing.

I've been trying, lately. Art used to be a much bigger passion for me, but I guess I just sort of let life get in the way of it for a while, and couldn't keep myself motivated enough to keep going. In the past months, I started to pick it up again, went out and bought a new sketchbook, some pencils. I felt really great to start doing it all again, and it made me feel better. Though over the past months now I once again ended up losing motivation. In recent weeks, I've begun once again, and I'm trying my best to just keep going and keep getting better. The biggest issue for me has always just been my mind creating this huge block that just freezes me up. But I'm just going to keep sticking with it, and pushing myself to try :)

And words of encouragement are one of the best things that help with all of that.

It's a bit like what happens to me a lot when I trie to draw I always have trouble getting drawings out of my head and on to paper but not all the time

*squeeks and snuffles*

:') Very beautiful!

I'll just leave this here... because I can :P ... but thank you for being that "friend" for me ... you keep me going, you keep me grounded... thank you love.

Words to live by...

Sound advice. ^.^

Story of my (artistic) life. When I'm first sketching, I absolutely hate everything... But instead of tossing it all, eventually I gotta just stick with what gives me some intuitive feeling that it could turn out okay at the end. And sometimes it actually does.

Where did this excellent poem come from?

Made it myself.

It's quite good! Expressive!

Please share this in NAF. It's wonderful.

I need to point others to this excellent work.

I completely relate.

Always good to have friends to remind you to keep pursuing your art, and give you a little encouragement when you doubt yourself.

good friend.

Thank you for inspiring your fellow artists :3

This sort of art block happens to everyone sometimes.
Yes, you are a really good artist! Don't give up!

Stuff like this makes me glad I watch you. You've been posting a lot of interesting and inspirational stuff.

NEVER stop artsing. When you least feel like it is when you can come up with some of your best work. Although sometimes it takes a friend with a foot to put up your rear to get you in gear to make it.

Honestly, this was exactly what I needed to see today.

This is wonderful, thank you for posting. I feel this way so much.. that my art will never be good enough and I should just give up. And when I do try it never ends up like what I have in my head. I will keep this and read it when I feel like that again, maybe it will help.

This applies to so many people on here I bet. We all have periods where we get frustrated at trying to create something. Thank you for the uplifting poem.

I am definitely going through this right now. As always, a beautiful piece <3

This was defiantly a helpful piece for a lot of people, your words are very true and that was very great of you to post so keep up all of the great stuff and this is more than great really!

A beautiful piece of art and an absolutely wonderful message! I feel this way far more than I should (which is why I haven't really posted much here in way too long). Reading things like this really helps a lot. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and art with us random internet folks. ^_^
