PFFT ! BULLSHIT !! The story is cool but seriously, Art is only for people who have talents. That's the reality of this shitty world. The others ( like me ) who has no talents can't reach a good level at drawing. And don't tell me practice make you better, it's wrong !! ART is only for talented people....that's sad but it's the reality....

Hmm, well that's not what everyone believes. The truth can be different for other people too.
For me, art isn't about talent- it's about expressing yourself in a way that so many people choose to not to. I've heard many people in my own grade say that they can't draw- that they have no talent.... but then again, is talent always important? Wouldn't you rather have fun with it first instead? That's what I think anyway. The official definition of art is this (it's on google):
'the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power'
Art is meant to be enjoyed, not so much 'good'. Celebrated for it's emotion, or idea behind it; not for how 'great' it is. Everyone has there own dreams, and as such, there very own unique definition of what is considered 'good art'.
Art no matter what your opinion on it (whether you dislike your own art or someone else's) is still a way to let your emotions out, even if the picture you create is just a stick person, (and to be honest, I've seen some pretty awesome stick figure artwork out there, just saying) If you're looking to get popular, then that yes, does require talent. But all good things start out small... taking baby steps, and wishing to get better; to me talent comes almost only from practice. And I know what your thinking: Wow this is a dumb goody two shoes, and yes I am. ^-^ An annoying one at that! But when you were younger, only a baby, you didn't jump up and start running when you were born, did you? It started with nothing at all, just kicking your legs around, and trying to get a grip on the world around you. Then, it went to a very wobbly crawl on all fours, and it was hard at first, but you kept at it... didn't you? Until eventually, you were able to stand by yourself, and then even walk around a little. These things take time, as well as a whole lotta effort. And trust me, it helps in the long run.
Yes some people are better at it from others, but then again, two people aren't the same. It would suck if our 'shitty' world had everyone acting exactly the same now wouldn't it? Even more so then it does now. The world has it's bad points, but then again- if it were perfect... we wouldn't be who we are today. Heck, we might not even be alive in the first place. To me, the world is meant to be imperfect... because even though it has so much negativity, there is always something to look forward to.
Everybody is different, and that is what makes their artwork unique. That's what I believe anyway.

I see your point....Sorry for get angry but it's just jealousy and frustration. I love drawing and i always wanted be better and a draw a comic one day, but the reality is i'm not good...I tried to study like anatomy, but it's boring, difficult, and i can't barely draw a figure....
Maybe my lack of confidence ( i'm a negative guy ) block me but i swear sometimes i dream to draw like artists i respect but the reality is hard...Plus, my drawings is ignored on devient art so i decided to stop.... Seriously i want to practice but i don't know what to do....Thanks for the reply.

Don't worry about it! And why would I block you for giving an opinion? That wouldn't make any sense at all. All I did was give you my own thoughts on it- no big deal.
To be perfectly honest, I'm still frusterated with anatomy, and just trying to redraw a character in general; I've been stressed out over it for more than a few months now... I kinda lost count on how many times I've almost quit drawing completely 
Maybe if you want to practice... hmm... well, why not just start drawing? Even just a single wavy line on a paper will work? Or maybe draw something that you think will look awful on perpose, then try to improve it when you feel like it? That is what I do, anyway. And half the time, the finished drawing sucks xP, but I keep it and see if I can draw it better the next time I get to it.

I could gush on and on about this, but....I don't think I really have words to explain how I feel about this.
I've only ever cried about a few art pieces in my entire life, and let me just say, this had be bawling and crying like a little kid for like, 10 minutes lol.
This is a cycle that goes on forever between artists, and it resonated with all of us at some level. Personally I've been feeling very helpless about my art for a couple years now, so seeing this...it really makes me happy.
When I was a kid, people would always say "You draw really well for your age!" But then as I got older, the compliments like that sort of stopped, and I'd see people my age draw better than I do now, and of course way better than when I was younger. And it just made me feel so horrible. This really just....gets me right in the heart.
Thank you for making this, I'm going to drag a bunch of artists I know over to this so they can see. I think all artists should see this at some point and come back to it when they feel down in the dumps about their creations.

Ohmygooooooooooooooood I LOVE IT
I can relate to this so much (just as everyone else can, but still)...This brings me back to when I first started drawing. I was at first so proud of myself, but because I found so many younger artists better than me, I almost gave up and hid all of my drawings. But then I started not only showing them here, but to my friends, and that's when I realized how much I'd improved, and how much people actually like what I do.
And this told the struggle of an artist so well (and cutely, I might add ), and it's so relatable and just GYAAA I LOVE IT TTVTT It made my day :')

I'm crying. Not just in my prof pic, no, I'm crying to this! I am one of the best artists in my art class t school, and everyone likes it (I know they do) but then I come here and see what I want to become and forget what I already am. But I love DA. It's helped me improve my skills a lot. :'D

Awww, this is such a touching and incredibly lovely story. It's a beautiful way to illustrate how often we forget that we touch the lives of many, many people. There are many moments you've captured that I can relate to as an artist and as a dreamer. I particularly love that one moment of how there's always that one inspirational image that pulls you through any overwhelmingly emotional hardships. It really put everything in perspective and made me smile so much!
Congratulations, dear! Thank you for sharing your beautiful insights with everyone!
