On Furaffinity I asked if I have to stop to draw because I'm not feeling happy when I draw and a lot of people replied "absolutely not, take a break if you want, but don't stop to draw, it's silly".
I made a decision for now: I will not draw anything for me, I'll just draw for other people. Why?
Because it seems that I feel anger only when I draw for myself, when I draw something I like. This for porn and clean art, even if this is more evident with adult art.
Why do I feel anger? Mostly because I'm not able to draw what I want in the way I want. Mostly because I like too much what I'm drawing that even a little mistake makes me disappointed, and trying to fix it repeatedly makes me angry.
Also, there's a lot of things bugging me, the most important are:
I see other people improving while I don't, I see people attending art school/courses while I can't. I'm still angry because my parents didn't help me to attend an art school/course but they, instead, thwarted me. I need people near me to draw with and to do art trades. I need people that like what I like.
I'm starting to see myself as second rate artist while my few friends are slowly becoming excellent artists.
Also, I can't forgive my parents and I hate them because of this situation.
Also, I hate myself for thinking those things.

I started to draw because I wanted to change the world trough my art, but recently it was to give vent to my feelings. Adult art was a way to express things I can't feel and express in real life.
But now... I can feel only anger when it comes to draw things for me. And from anger nothing good can born.

So I made a decision, for now, I will draw pictures for other people only, because I am not emotionally involved in pictures for other people.
I think it's good for now... better than don't draw anymore.
Please forgive me.

On a related note, today is my birthday. I'm 26 year old now.
I would like to receive a lot of gifts, I would like to receive a lot of GOOD gifts. I would like to receive a lot of art depicting the characters I like.
I know I'm egoist, because I didn't do anything for other people, but It can't be helped, I can't stop to feel it.
I would have liked to go out for a pizza with my friends and chat like silly people as always, but we can't meet because of a lot of reasons.

Again, thank you for reading me and supporting me.
I'm writing those things because I need to exercise myself with English and I promised myself to don't keep my feelings inside me, because it can only destroy me and friendship with my friends.
So, please forgive me if I suddenly changed.
This is a changing time for me.

Thank you very much for your support,
Aledon Rex

Dude, I can totally feel your situation. Things'll get better, I hope.

Happy birthday! Umm... I can try to draw you something. X) What do ya want, since I'm a bit of an idiot and can't get a hint. ^^;

Congrats :glomp:

I'm sorry to hear that you have such problems with drawing at the moment, I hope that this will get better soon =( I'm happy to hear that you won't stop drawing at all and you still draw just for other persons =) And I think that this'll help you.

Perhaps you can't visit any art course, but you can still ask yur friends for OC sessions where they can show you some hints =)

auguri aledon :) ho letto dei tuoi problemi, non mi arrogo la presunzione di capirli appieno, ma una parte si, anche io quando scrivo (son piu bravo a scrivere che non a disegnare) mi capita di infervorarmi o arrabbiarmi, a volte perchè come a te mi capita di non riuscire a descrivere una cosa come vorrei, altre perchè letteralmente invidio i personaggi della mia storia perchè faccio fare a loro cose che probabilmente io non potrei fare mai... e a volte mi arrabbio per invidia quando vedo altri autori che piu o meno aiutati dalla fortuna han pubblicato lavori mediocri mentre il mio potenziale non so se riuscirà mai ad emergere

piu o meno come la tua voglia di potenziarti e migliorarti artisticamente... e cmq se il mio parere conta, sappi che non sei affatto un artista mediocre, disegni e colori benissimo, vorrei saperlo fare un decimo di come sai farlo tu...

cmq come gia ti hanno detto e come io confermo: è solo un periodo, al massimo un brusio di fondo, passerà :)
