Sleepless Nite
3 years ago
Been tossing and turning through the night and said screw it to sleep.
The idea of what to do is haunting my thoughts. Like I said in my last journal, I'm feeling a bit lost in the crowd lately.
I don't know what to do, looking at art just makes things worse. I wanted inspiration but all it did was convince me I'm
not needed.
I'm not a professional so my art is not my meal ticket, I could say it's more personal than that but It's probably not.
I get this way about anything that is very popular, I don't like giant groups as I am not a people person and all those people freak me out.
Fandoms can be the same at times. Furry used to be an outsider group mocked by most, now however it's everywhere. Hell even Adult sites are carrying
Furry as a Category.
I'm confused, kinda lost and stuck like a Sail ship with no wind.
I'll get past this somehow, right now tho I'm lost.

While I do enjoy sharing most of the work I do is for me, what I like and want to draw.
I'd say because it is mine and unique but the more I look around the more similarities I see others having.
I need to just draw for myself but have issues sharing more personal arts, stuff I post is rarely so deep.
Now, on the other paw, comparing our works to others is a double edged sword. It can help us look at areas we need to improve or it can tear apart our self confidence. I had to learn to look with an eye towards improvement myself, especially after meeting a few of these great artists around here and seeing how they do in an afternoon what I take a week to do.
