Me and Digital Art


Sometimes I feel so down while I am drawing. After sketching I look at it. I see limbs out of shape, too long or too short. And then I also struggle with try to draw the proper perspective. I just want to give up and I tell my self -”this is not for me. Maybe I should just stick to 3D modeling where I don't have to deal with certain issues”.

But then the next day I return to look at the drawing. I see all the mistakes I made with a fresh eye. I make the necessary corrections and the drawing no longer looks as bad. Then I think to myself, - “Bad drawing on the first day to pretty good drawing the next day. It's not a bad trade off.”

I just envy those artist who can make amazing drawings on their first couple four hours. But I guess I have to accept that I produce a little slower. Because every time I draw, I have to leave it for a while so I can properly see the mistakes later.

It is very similar when I am writing an article. After I write I have to leave the article for a while so I can edit it later with a fresh eye.
