It's hard not being self-conscious or feel competitive when all you see on the internet are likes and dislikes and worst of all views. Why does art have to be a popularity contest? It doesn't. All I have been doing is drawing to get the attention of others in hopes I have a big break somewhere. I was just waiting to be recognized, but being the stubborn bastard that I am I didn't want to bend to the publics whim. Of course that inner conflict created sadness. Sadness became doubt. Doubt was an excuse. For real this time, I'm drawing because it let's me express myself. If someone doesn't like it, oh well. If no one sees this, oh well. I drew, and I wrote, and I care. If anyone sees this and feels the same, you're definitely not alone.
