this still pisses me off

Something I heard since I was a young teenager was stuff like “I wish I could draw as well as you” then immediately dismissed when asked how I learned and my answer was “practice.”

Talent is bullshit, you still have to put hard work into it. And today everyone as access to so many amazing sources, kid me is so jealous.

I saved up money for ages for Photoshop 6.0 in 2000, my first scanner did about 300 DPI, and I didn’t get my first drawing tablet until I was 18.  I still greatly struggle with figures and anatomy and often ask for critique from close friends. I don’t think I’m an amazingly great artist but I am happy with what I produce.

I’ve seen 13 year olds pump out art that I couldn’t have done til I was 20.  And holy shit that is awesome.

More resources are available now than ever. You just have to be willing to TRY.
