“Disregard that, I suck cocks.” - AB

To draw is easy.
Just put a tool that can make a mark, and it’s done.
Pen or pencil on paper.
Brush and ink on canvas.
Spray paint on a wall.
Stylus on a tablet.
Light on a long exposure camera.
And the result is a drawing.
Coffee residue under your cup onto your table.
Writing even.

Anyone can do it.

A single dot can even be a drawing.
A child can draw. A monkey can draw. Even snails can draw with their slimes.

What makes it stronger in visual appeal would to expend effort on it.

Practice. (Practice is not only about drawing, it’s about how you hold your tool. How you use your tools. How the tools react to each other. How you react to the tools. How others react to your drawings. you may learn things that does not suit you. Don’t be afraid to forget.)
Study so you learn different processes. (Copying and tracing is fine, but respect the originals and credit them. Mentorship and classes helps some while self study helps others.)
Adapt so you can make your mark different from others. (Don’t be afraid to use styles of other people, or even learn multiple styles. A wider array of drawing background will let you draw more comfortably and expand your portfolio/library)
Observe the world around you and the world others create to build your library. (Books, movies, art, music, ads, games, fashion, etc… It is okay to reject things while still adding them to your library.)

It doesn’t matter when you start or how you start.
It doesn’t matter how you learn or who you learn from. (On a personal level. On a professional level, you will need certifications to back up your abilities and justifications to others.)
It doesn’t matter how much worth you place onto your art.
It doesn’t matter the subject matter of what you draw. (People might not like you for what you draw. Friends, family, the public, and the law. This is normal and has happened in history. Try not to get into too much trouble, and don’t force your own subject matter onto others.)
Just keep expending effort into it and you will grow stronger.

Don’t say you can’t draw because anyone can do it.
You might not consider yourself an artist, but being an artist doesn’t mean others will accept you.
Even if drawing is something you do in your free time, as a hobby, or for money, you can draw.

Don’t stop changing. Don’t stop expanding. Don’t stop growing.

I don’t know what to do
Just feel like there’s nothing I want
Nothing I want to do
I just want to be alone
Nothing I do is good enough
There are things I could be doing
There are things I should be doing
Things that I can do but don’t
Things I should change but don’t
I don’t want to do anything
But I need directions in life
I could be better
I should drive myself
But I’m not

canimuff:

no offense but i’m literally starving for affection but when people give it to me i can’t accept it as valid because i’m worried i’ve manipulated their perception of me by only portraying myself a certain way and feeling like this portrayal of myself is an imposter and makes me disingenuous and not deserving of the affection they give me.

can i get an amen
