I just wanted to rant about my broken dream of art and I just want other artists to understand. I have always loved drawing, especially as a kid. But now that I'm an adult with different views on life.. art is fucking impossible for me and it's straight physiological warfare. To understand, me as a person. I like to be perfect and u can probably already see where this is going but I can not STAND creating bad art as someone who never draws and it's such an issue for me it leaves me ranting to my gf about how much I want to draw but just can't (she's an artist). It doesn't help that ppl younger than me can just grasp the concept and I can't at all. Im a very fast learner and I'm used to learning everything efficiently and the end product should be perfect. I've tried to break out of this mindset but fuck man, art is a beast for me to take on because I can't stand not being good at something and art requires failure after failure and it drives me fucking insane. I have a respect and love for art, so much so I envy the people better than me at it even tho I haven't started. And then I think of all the shit id have to learn (shapes,colors, perspective, anatomy, etc.)and that makes me even more demoralized because its such a high mountain to climb and i know ill be failing all the way through. This shit sucks and if I could get any type of perspective that would help me get started. That would be great.
