I’m so tried of this game my mind plays on my emotions. I get mad and frustrated without reason and this just makes it worse sometimes. My art is complete and utter crap rn except for one painting I’ve been working on that I’ll finish soon. I can’t bring myself to do anything that’s productive and I keep scrapping art that could be good but I can’t reach the bar that I’ve set for the expectations in my paintings and it’s tearing me apart. I know I’m being dramatic but tbh I’m thinking about just..... idk. Another thing is followers. I’m so tired of seeing my followers plumit and peak. I try not to worry about it because why should I care if you don’t like my art? I love to draw and I’m proud of the accomplishments that I’ve made on my art.
So unfollow me.
Unfollow me if you don’t like me or my art. Don’t spare my feelings. I hate people feeling sorry for me and I’m sorry guys but this stuff just really gets to me especially because I’m so mentally frustrated right now. I haven’t been able to draw all week and they shortened our Christmas break which makes me so much more pissed off then I already am. School is piling mountains of work on me and having to balance school, sports, and living up to my families expectations is driving me to my breaking point to where I’m starting to break down when I see how tired I am in the mirror. I’m sorry but I had to get this out of my system.
I’ll delete this later I guess.

hey man don't even worry about posting stuff like this. and i completely understand that you can be frustrated at everything, honestly ive been putting off weekly rage attacks because im really freaking done with life but thats not important right now. i know i said it earlier but if you dont like how your art is, you can always try something different (like landscapes or just nice mindless stuff, i draw dreamcatchers to keep me focused in class) or just take another break. and about losing followers excuse my language but if people dont like your art f/ck them because you are one of the greatest artists ive seen on here and your improvement has skyrocketed since i first found your account. im always here, colors and discord, if you ever need someone to rant to. life gives us a lot of shit but for a little bit it tones it down and thats when it matters to realize how good it actually is. just dont let all the negativity around get you down, you are such a strong person personality wise and i know you can get through this. i really hope life picks up its shit because you dont deserve this

if you don’t even like my art and just want a follower then just unfollow please because I follow people if I like their art or if they show potential and they’re a good person. If I don’t see the people I know don’t even bother with this account ignore everything I just said about followers then I will personally go and ask you to please unfollow me. I know I sound mean and harsh but this is an issue for me that I want to fix for myself. This doesn’t apply to you if your a friend (if I’ve held a conversation with you or you’ve commented once in a blue moon) but seriously I do not care if I go back to 10 followers I’ll know that those 10 people are people who like my art and I’m perfectly fine with that.

I see so many posts like, this, the reality is yeah, you got to do the hard work! No one said being an artists was easy, it definitely has it's challenge, but will you let that stop you from doing what you love?
I do see a lot of potential in you, and these feelings that you have about your art are normal to say the least.
A good artist is never satisfied with their work. We tend to compare ours with the work of others, instead of our past paintings. Which I don't think is necessarily a bad thing.
It's better to struggle with skills then to thrive, that's how you learn.
