im thinking of quitting by sunny-dee

i have had a lot of pressure on me lately with school and family stuff and my mental health is declining i just dont find joy in drawing anymore if anything it makes me feel worse because my parents remind me that my brothers art will always be better than mine because my art is childish and i just cant feel good about myself anymore so im taking a break and i may or may not come back this really was fun while it lasted i really did enjoy talking to all of you

Personally, I love your art. It's great. :) Your parents sound very unsupportive. Enjoy your break. If you decide on quitting, just know you'll be missed.

your art is gorgeous, you should show them that youre better than they think you are n you should use their comments as motivation to improve even more n prove them wrong!!
its your choice to leave, but if you do, i'll miss you tons. i hope u enjoy ur break !

I'm sorry that you feel that way and are being put through a rough time. i would encourage you not to listen to that kind of criticism. Art isn't about good or bad. You should let yourself enjoy drawing. I stopped drawing when i was 14 because of a negative experience and pressure similar to what you described (for me it was an art teacher). I only got back into just before i turned 30 and i feel like there was a lot of lost time when i should be enjoying the fun of making art. :)
