There’s also something so satisfying about looking at a finished picture that you made by yourself. Like I’ll be thinking the whole time how I really screwed this one up and it turned out nothing like what I wanted, but I’ll keep scratching away until it’s “done.” And it feels… Really really good.
And then a week later I’ll open my notepad and see what I drew and be like “whoa this is pretty cool actually!” There’s usually at least one part about a drawing I like (like a bit if shading that looks cool, even by accident), that I can take with me as something to focus on attempting.
Just keep doing that and eventually people will just say about you “oh man so-and-so is a really good drawer you should see their stuff” and you know you’re still learning, always learning, but still you’ll believe them. You’ve become a good drawer. An artist.
Great!
