Speaking of art things, I posted this on my DA awhile ago and forgot about it, but I figure I might as well share this here.
Like I mentioned in my last post, I’m not pleased with my progression. There is definitely progress, but not enough to feel particularly proud of.
I’m no artist, but the way I figure it, if you make things that other people like (and you do!), you’re a success already. (It’s more than 99% of people can do!) I’ve a strong feeling that artists live in a bubble and constantly compare themselves to other artists. Doing so can affect your self-esteem IMHO. You’re not Rembrant, you’re Cider. And you’re the best Cider artist I know. 🙂
But again, I’m not an artist. Just a guy who knows what he likes, and I like your style. Improvement is always a good thing I suppose, but I’m not sure it’s the only thing. If you suddenly started drawing like… oh, name somebody… I’d probably still like it, but then you’d be “that guy who draws like xxxx.” Where’s the fun in that?
