frustration and brain freeze

Wed Dec 3, 2008, 11:44 AM
so i have decided after much deliberation that becoming a real professional artist has been my dream all along and that i am officially enrolling in an AFA program to pursue that. the only problem is that i have been completely and utterly unable to draw anything in a long time. every time i sit down and try i get so frustrated that i just give up. i used to draw all the time, just sit down and bang out something that looked pretty good. now i can't stand how inhibited i am. it's like i used to know how to draw, or it came naturally, and now i don't know how anymore. i need to relearn. and everytime i go on DA and look at all of the amazing work out there, it makes me even more ambivalent - i wish i could do such great work and i am motivated to try, but at the same time i need to find my own style and i feel that i'll never be as good as some of the incredible talents in the DA community. i wish i had more work uploaded on here, but everything i have is unfinished. *sigh*
