I keep getting a lot of people who say, "OMG I'M SO JEALOUS OF YOU!!!!" and they keep cutting down their own work saying that it's so shitty. Well, I just wanted to prove that the old adage, "Practice makes perfect" is true.
( behold some OLD drawings )I don't by any means think that I'm better than anyone else. But I
can confidently look back on my old work and realize how far I've come. It really excites me, because I know in another 5 years, I will look back at my current work and cringe just the same.
I got to the point where I am right now by experimenting, trying new things, and first and foremost, drawing/painting constantly.
So next time you look at someone's work and feel that tinge of jealousy (trust me, I feel it constantly), remember that those people worked HARD to get where they are. Nobody is just born with the natural abilty to paint or draw amazing pictures. They may have the talent, but without determination and hard work, talent means nothing. So instead of hating yourself, just keep pushing your limits.
