A piece of wisdom for artists
Even if you lack skill to draw something, just freakin draw it
No, no no no no arguments
Look at this abridged-for-post scene from chapter 45 of Yotsuba&!, in which they make a cake
It’s terrible, an abomination, a sin against everything that ever was a well-made cake
But read those word bubbles again
It’s PERFECT
Look at that, look at how proud she is of it
LOOK AT THEM EXPRESSING THEIR EMOTIONS OVER THE CAKE
So just DO THAT with your art
It’s just like the cake
If you’re terrible at landscapes, draw landscapes anyway
Terrible at faces, draw faces anyway
Do it, it’s okay. People will judge you for it, maybe, and you may have to listen to them too. But you don’t have to judge yourself! So long as you’re willing to improve.
Done.
