To all hopeless people who want to learn how to draw

[Casy 238]

I found out that there are a lot of people on this forums who draws, but want to give up drawing,they say that they will never be able to draw, that they skills are not good enough etc. ...

 

WRONG
.
ALL

.

.

.
THOSE

.
THINGS
...ARE WRONG.

I actually found it out today, when i decided to redraw 4 years old picture. I remember when exactly i drew it. I also remember how proud was i when i drew it... (i have to say i already drew for 2 years) and also how i started to hate it... because it wasn't good enough...
I adored so many artists on Deviantart and kept telling myself that i will never able to draw like them. "ohhh i wish i could draw like this guy... but i never will.. thats impossible..." Its not. I can tell you. Its rly not.
Back to art. Like i said, i took my 4 years old drawing , and today i sat down are redrew it..
Here is the result, after daily drawing for 4 years.

 

 

So message for all hopeless artists on this forum.. don't give up..never..ever

I love this message--and your art. 

I dunno, I think becoming impressive does take a huge investment of time, but I think it's well worth it. I'm all for impressing on people that it's far from hopeless.

 

I have some stuff I could dig up that is like... Cringe worthy.

But set next to what I do now, it looks like a different person.

...Though at best I think I measure around your 2010 stage, haha.

That first drawing is still way way better than anything I could ever draw with half a year of art classes

 

Thanks for the encouragement if I ever do decide to take up drawing again, though.

What's wrong with the first one?
