”I have this artistic idea but not the skills to achieve it to the standard I want.”

congrats! Now you have a motif! A recurring theme! A focus for your art! Something to haunt you!

Seventeen still lives of dandelions? Three hundred poems about grief? A sketchbook dedicated to your grandmother’s house? Two books trying to unravel the complexities of familial relationships?

Don’t let the fear of it not being perfect on the first try stop you from being Weird About It!

When I was a kid I had some art lessons and the only thing I clearly remember from them is that you shouldn't draw a tree like a stick with some leaves on top of it. A tree is this grandiose, branching structure, uneven and thick

So, I went to the forest today AND ITS ALL STICKS are you kidding me

HEY, YOU; disabled artists !

i love all of you

the ones who can't draw straight lines

the ones with "poor" color theory

the ones with chicken scratch

the ones who take more than a week to finish a piece

the ones who struggle with anatomy

the ones who struggle going outside their comfort zone

the ones with a messy artstyle

the ones with an inconsistent art style

ALL OF YOU !!

please keep creating <3

how it feels rn

[thegeekcollective]

hey, you're allowed to take up space and make noise

it's okay if your mobility aids click or squeak

it's okay if you need more space to pass because of your aids or the way you walk

it's okay if you need to ask more questions

it's okay if you need to ask for help with things, either for physical or mental limitations

it's okay if the way your body is means you need more room

it's okay to exist and to take up space

ily /p

"what's the worst thing you can do as an artist" is not "shade with black" or "not use references" or whatever the worst thing you can do as an artist is hate yourself. and that includes the person you used to be
