thanks <3 it does mean a lot, but I guess I really...can't be satisfied with where I am :( I a lot of my older work is more interesting, even if it's not as technically correct or something. I kinda just feel like I have a lot more technical skill but nothing about my work is inspired anymore. it's just kind of boring, static animal-people doing boring things. So I guess that's a direction I have to figure out next ^^; I'm hoping getting out of boring school projects will help me find my own direction and inspiration. :3

*huuuugs* Sweetie, your art is beautiful. You do things with markers I can only shake my head in envy at. Considering you are still a wee little pup compared to myself and a number of other artists out there, that's nothing to sneeze at. Plus, it's true. we all started somewhere, and continue to grow and improve as time goes on. The things that separates artists that end up becoming professionals and those that continue to just do art as a 'hobby' (not that there's anything wrong with either choice) is that the pros continue to work, strive, and grow. You have to keep pushing yourself, and busting your ass to improve upon the things you don't like/aren't good at. And honestly? 99.9% of artists I know are NEVER fully satisfied with their work. We nitpick, grumble, and see all the little piddly things we COULD have done different, or better. And next time, maybe we do. And maybe we then notice OTHER little things we could do better. It's a neve-rending cycle that is part of what keeps artists reaching for the next bar. Hell, even the

One thing you need to remember Gel, is you are amazing <3 I admire the way you can do things, things I will NEVER be able to do. You got me into so much and without knowing pushed me to do so many more things <3333 You were the reason I ended up making Kione, learning how to use markers, continuing my animations, getting into badges and loads of other things <3.

And I know what you mean, I have that alot and have to step back and think about it. There are times I want to give up completely but thanks to my friends, family and fans I've kept on going. And looking back at my old art lmao its so horrible but I understand how far I came.

But this was a needed journal, I think I needed to stop and think about this too. Ilu <3
