• Frustrated with myself and my art

    I have been thinking this same thing over and over again for a long while now. My art is uninteresting.

    I might be totally wrong but I don't think I'm the worst drawer in the world, even though I have a long way to go, so why doesn't anyone, on any site, be it deviantArt, y!Gallery or Paperdemon give comments on my pictures? None cares even in real life.

    "Why do you care are you an attention seeker, want someone to stroke your ego?" Of course I seek attention, why would I put my work on display if I didn't? I want to get critique and improve.

    There must be something wrong with me and I wish people would tell me what it is so I can do something better. But how to achieve that if people don't ever view your works because it's unoriginal and uninteresting? That's what I think it is and I swear I have tried and tried to do something interesting but I suppose my ideas just aren't good enough.

    I confess, I'm trying hard and I feel angry when I see a Naruto headshot done by a 13-year-old girl who just got into anime and manga and now finds suddenly drawing extremely cool get a hundred comments and friends trough that single piece in her gallery.

    What's wrong with me? What's wrong with the way I do things?

    Thank you and goodbye,

    A.G.

    So, now I have a gallery at paperdemon.com.

    I hope that I get new ideas, friends and helpful comments here. This seems to be a quite pleasant place. By so far I have submitted some of my older artworks but regretfully nothing new.

    I suppose I'll manage to do something new sometime soon, I have been busy so I have not had time for drawing. I think I'm going to test my skills with ink and watercolours when the inspiration comes. It has been very long since I've worked with them.

    Of course my literature works need attention too. However I must make sure that some of them -'Noruin äelsk' for example - do not violate the rules of this site before I can submit them here.
