worried

[trailmix]

Gawd I feel like I can neve rbe good enough at art. I can never express my feelings the way I want or draw the way I want. I know the answer is to practice practice practice and take more classes blah blah ballllaaaahh... But what if art isn't my thing? I've come to the realization that I only draw when I'm bored, not for fun. Do all artists go

Don't worry, every artist feels like this from time to time. It's in the contract, under the suffering artist clause. In my experience, I always create something wonderful after I've been through one of these patches.

Don't let anyone else make you feel that what you do is not important. This includes yourself, in a funny kind of way.

Your plan sounds good. Don't push yourself too hard though, because you will burn out.

do you ever recover from a burn out?

[midnight_cat]

Eventually, yeah. Takes much longer though. I find it better to take lots of little breaks rather than being forced to take a big one. Involuntary art breaks are teh suck.

*smack* you sicken me -_-

hey it's ok!!!! :) like what's her face said up there, it's probably just a spot in your carrer where you hit a hard spot, you'll pass it REAL SOON. but reading what you just posted about forcing yourself to do all that each day, your only going to burn yourself out furthur. Your never going to see it as fun, or improving the way you want to if you set so many big goals for you each day. Just my idea, you take whatever you want, or what you think you will do best in. :) Because whatever you do jenn, i'll always envy you and look up to your creativity.
