man, artists will be like "sorry to blind you with my terrible sketch. i'm such a horrible artist but here ya go" and then they'll whip out the most beautiful, diligently planned piece of art you've ever had the privilege of laying eyes upon. bitch, i will kiss your hands rn if you don't shut up

#i know that when we create things we have a difficult time appraising our skills and talents for what they are: skills and talents #because we've spent so much time with them #we know what we had in our heads and sometimes they don't always come out the way we planned but that should never discourage you #hone your crafts ladies gents and nbs and love your progress #even if your skills arent what you want them to be right now i bet they've improved from where they were a year ago #let's unnormalize (is that a word?) negative self-talk about how creativity!#let's praise our own works and encourage ourselves #i'm saying we and our because although i don't draw- i write occasionally and i catch myself speaking negatively about my work #i think that negatively i've spoken to myself is the reason why i keep falling out of love with writing #negative self talk is the reason why i've fallen out of love with alot about myself #lets all encourage ourselves and encourage each other to love our work the way that the people we share said work with love it #i know it's easier said than done but i'm willing to give it a shot #anyway- annoying positivity speech aside #@all my creative mutuals- sneeze on me so that i can have some of your talents
