Jeez.

Nobody will probably read this.

But, right now I feel like a failure. Nothing new, haha.
I feel as if I'll never create something beautiful. I keep drawing a lot, and while in the process of making something, i think it looks great. But when I finish it, it looks completely terrible.
Comparing my work to other deviants, I see huge differences. I see so much talent in all of you people, but I see nothing in me. When I look at my drawings, they look blank. Empty.
No talent, no potential.
I'm constantly thinking how everyone's work is much better than mine. Constantly feeling sorry for myself, when I shouldn't be. I should shut up, stop complaining, and PRACTICE.
I keep telling myself I need to get better at drawing, and the only way to get better is to practice!
But whenever I go to paper, nothing ever freakin' comes out. I can make up a couple of surreal things, but I also want to major in portraits as well. But the faces never come out looking realistic, no matter how hard I try. I feel like I'll never be able to make anything beautiful.
This has nothing to do with my age, either. It doesn't matter how old I am. Or that I'm only 12. I have been drawing my whole life, so with as much practice as I've had, I should be at a higher level. But im not, I feel like a failure.

nothing new.

I'm 12 years old, I have been drawing my entire life, and I hope to have a good future with art. I have grown up with anime my entire life, and I love it. I watch it much, and I think it's absolutely great. I love music as well, all types of music are very beautiful, including metal and screamo :) I also love to read because it's fun to enter new worlds.

His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation
Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of
His name
His ineffable effable
Effanineffable
Deep and inscrutable singular name.

Hey I'd love for you to check out my art timeline :3!

This is the piece I said I'd post earlier. There's a second link for the second part of the timeline in the description. And like I said before, I really like your art and I'm watching you now xD
Sorry, I couldn't think of any other way to say that without it sounding creepy.
:iconyexoticcreature:
Haha, that's okay. And thanks! I really like your work too. I checked out your timelines and they look good.
