Discouraged

2 min read
I see a lot of art improvement memes on this site but I've never seen one by someone who started out at the level I am now. I want to see just one art improvement meme by someone who started out at my current level and got really good to know it's possible. I feel discouraged. People tell me I should just focus on my photography or writing or something, but fuck it, I want to draw. I want to be good at drawing. But I don't practice anywhere near as much as I should cause I'm really discouraged. I when I was a kid I was diagnosed with gross and fine motor delays, the fine motor delays mean my hands are extremely uncoordinated and don't work as they should. So my drawings don't look much better then preschool students even though I'm 22. I love it but it isn't enough. I want to inspire people with my art, make them feel something. But I can't do that unless my drawings look attractive, the sheer badness is distracting from my message. Ugh. Why is it that everything I love I have the exact opposite of talent, and the things I'm supposedly good at I despise?
