Things NOT to say to an art major/artists in general.

  • You’re so lucky you don’t have to buy textbooks!
  • You’re a really good drawer.
  • Can you draw me?
  • Did you draw that? (No, I’m just running my pencil over someone else’s drawing for fun)
  • That’s so good, it looks traced!
  • Did you trace that?
  • Design my tattoo! (This is what tattoo artists are there for)
  • Draw this thing for me!
  • *pretty much expecting/demanding any art for free*
  • I can’t even draw a straight line. (Neither can I. There are these things called “rulers”)
  • Can you teach me to draw?
  • Was that freehand?
  • I wish I was born with artistic talent. (Saying things like this discredits all the effort we actually put in to developing our skills.)
  • *TOUCHING THE ART*

Reblog if you're a self-taught artist.

Wanna see how many there are.

Same here

If by self taught you mean years of doodles, crying over your pathetic art, tearing up thousands of drawings and then finally drawing something you’re proud of… ONLY TO HATE IT 5 DAYS LATER

Then yes. I am self taught.

You know, I thought that since I'm not in school anymore, the whole 'writing the wrong year on a paper' was over for me. I just signed a drawing '2013' instead of '2014' and I feel like such a fuckin' idiot.

I want to draw but that means I have to draw
