I get the same while writing. There was some quote saying you'll probably never be happy with your work but you simply, though mad desperation, get the point that it'll do.

i guess you just gotta be happy with the best of your current condition or something. or at least be proud of stuff you make XD
but soo much yes. your art is never that good in your perspective

Ya know, I've told a lot of my friends this and its become my own personal mantra to understand myself and help me "accept" my limits:
You are your own worst critic.
Of course, that doesn't stop me from drawing a head shape and going "nope!" then flipping the page and doing the exact same thing...even when I could erase it because its been drawn in FREAKIN' PENCIL!!!
I feel your pain, Kevin. I really do.

Ah yes, we all go through this as artists. However, don't let it get to you, the good thing about never gettin satisfied is that you continuing to get better.

I feel bad for sharing at times : ) you keep saying i'm good and i say that i'm never happy either XD oh the PingPong game continues, an endless game of pong.
But Don't let it get to you Kev, you can't please everyone, let alone your endless talent, you'll always strive for the best. but this is a good mentality if you thinks about it, cus you'll always be trying to improve. We are the same : )

I'm optimistic about this things.
To a point where it's just plain creepy.
Because I'm always striving to make my art better, I'm more motivated to draw. Though I'm never fully satisfied with what I draw, I know I'm getting better, and what I'm drawing will one day be decent, and that makes me happy.
IT'S A GIANT FREAKING CIRCLE THAT GOT TWISTED UP AND BROKEN.
