Description Real title should be the portrait of the artist as a young wannabe.

Ever have those days where you feel completely worthless as an artist? That you just suck, that there are twelve year olds out there with more talent and skill. That someone born the same year is already more successful than you will ever be. That your thoughts are hunted about not being good enough, and that your work is never a full reflection of what you want it to be. Sometimes I have those days.

Sorry for the pity party, I usually try to be more positive. I don't really think people read comments this long anyway.

pencil and some touch up in photoshop

That's not a long comment. Shoot, I read one last night that I had to scroll several times to finish. 'Course, I am kind of a completist.

This is way better than my sketches. This is also rather cute, especially the eyes. They have a happy sparkle.

Thank you very much! I think as artist we can sometimes be our toughest critics.

thats sooo true. while everyone else looks at your art and says wow, if YOU dont like it, those nice words seem to mean very little.

Don't doubt your skills! You have one of the most unique styles I've ever seen, which I think is one of the best ways to tell a good artist from a fake that just mimics the works of others. I love your drawings, keep it up!

I'd disagree with the inconsistency statment. But you're welcome
