It looks great and I'm not exaggerating or just being kind.

Seriously man, don't be so hard on yourself.

For starters, check out the 7-year-old art above my latest post and compare it to this.

And you know what, I might joke about it but won't say it's bad. I have been way too hard on myself for way too long and it doesn't make you feel better.

Time to practice some self love! ;<)

Thank you!

I think I have not yet been hard enough to myself. Because this time I didn't even mention anything about swearing and hair pulling or banging my head against the wall to a circle that has a text in the center of it: "bang you head here" and no nails were pulled or even bitten. So I'm really far away from being an actual artist that eventually would die some horrible way and that way earn the right for the art to be really expensive.

Although I have no idea how I could make more art post mortem so perhaps I'll just concentrate on driving me insane. Oh wait... but I am insane so... All's good then!

But seriously though. One thing that I've learned is that you should never compare your art to any other art that someone else has done. You can have goals, but never compare. And never listen those who do that to you. I think art is more than just the end result. It's the process and the thought put in to it. It is, of course also the end result but I think too many people focus too much on that. And on the fact that does it please their eye. My opinion is that although art can be nice to watch it also can be just something that raises questions. Makes a statement. Tickles your brain. Or all of this.

Your art is awesome and when you're happy with it, that is enough. So sorry to disappoint you, but I like your art. :)

Glad we like each other's art. In all honesty, I start to like my own art and myself more and more day by day.

Does that make me a narcissist? ;<)

Narcissist? I think not. You have to try harder to be a narcissist. 😄
