And your art is so unique and cool, that it deserves to be in the world, now, as in the professional future...few truer words have been spoken as you say above [about no one being born professional] about art; and being professional in it (something I confess I am not even remotely aiming for) takes a lot of self-sacrifice--I hope and pray, for your sake, that this road becomes smoother and smoother for you and you are capable of it.....

Take these words as they are, from someone who is not in your path--I know I may not understand...

Idk if my saying this helps any but I do feel that art to be art should be done to make your heart happy...the other stuff may look like art to everyone else, but it isn't really art to you if your heart isn't in it....

I think that maybe one should take a certain amount of time, maybe even days/weeks, and just do art for you--no commissions, no art projects for others/school [if that kind of hiatus is possible] and such, and just do whatever makes you happy.  If nothing comes, then just go out, walk in beautiful areas, visit friends, read--and make more art when you feel it.  Some such exercise, I think, might purge a few demons....

I guess it's my fault, I was complimenting you as a master but I was thinking it is too much so if it is my fault, I'm sorry...

Ueah, this some times happens to me, all because they say they are not well anatomically my drawings and stuff, but I really just want to improve a little but the trouble is that many more like him more ''hiperrealist'' possible, but should have reason to not have such high expectations, I just hope you continue so I'm in these situations also don't worry.

I have to confess that this is the reason that I rarely post my art and stories. It's the feeling that thousands of people are going to judge me. And that feeling causes me to scrutinize my work until I believe that what I have isn't good enough. That's just it really. Even if part of me knows it not to be true, there is always that feeling that I will be compared to somebody of greater talent.

You're an amazing artist, something that I could only possibly hope to be within the next five years of my life. I know you've got what it takes to endure and find what you love to do.

It shouldn't matter if you're a professional or a newbie you love making art don't you?...I don't know what it's like being professional but I know that expectations can stress the hell out of people...but you shouldn't let that bother you..if they're disappointed...so what? You do what you do..and it doesn't matter if you love drawing

Wooow, and here I thought you we're a super happy person all the time. XD

I know what you mean though, getting older people expect things from you, and its not always a cool feeling to have.
You wanna take things at your own pace, you wanna do things when you can, but nope, you've gotta do 50 million other things before you can do the fun stuff you enjoy. eDe

But I suppose thats just a part of growing up...doesn't mean we have to like it, we just have to deal with it. ; u ;

You can still do what you wanna do PhuiJL, you just have to endure the time being, then when its all said and done, you can get back to doing your own beautiful PhuiJL-tastic work. >u<

We believe in you. ouo

I don't mind the venting art so much. If it allows you to calm down, then draw it. About being a professional, the whole "high expectations" problem is one many people in your field of expertise have to deal with--heck, even people in other fields of work have to put up with it. It all has to do with everyone wanting you to create masterpieces to fulfill some sort of quota they have placed you in. It's a very painful thing to put up with, and it is sort of stupid that anyone has to put up with it in the first place. However, you don't always have to live up to anyone's expectations. What they expect you to do may sometimes be a personal desire to see what they want made, rather than a want to see an artist they like draw what they desire. However, a desire is still a desire, which means that it doesn't NEED to be fulfilled, it's just something that the person with said desire wishes to indulge in, even though that want comes at the expense of the artist. In my opinion, it would be a good idea for you to continue drawing the things you enjoy drawing while ignoring those who wish for your art to meet their desires. Since this is your art, it's up to you to decide how the final product turns out, not anyone else. I hope my advice is helpful to you, and I hope you have a very nice day !

Aaaww... ya know...it happens to me too... during at the end of school, it was horrible, since i had to meet someone in a volleyball stage, i had to finish that STUPID history which pisses me off and made me cry a lot for an hour. Everyone has their true self, but happily my mother said that at the last day of school, i had a day out because i didn't feel so well until i get better... but still in summer vacation.

shh ugh i know that feeling q__q;; people have high expectations over how i should live my life and art and writing is never a part of their plans; and let's be honest here, drawing and writing is literally who i am. It's really sucky.

People shouldn't put such heavy expectations on others. I think you're doing great, no matter what you draw so shhh come here, let me hug you. <3
