sometimes on my bad days i just

Being an artist and having no one to network/rub elbows with you is an absolutely horrible feeling. Artists want their artwork seen and appreciated, even if their art isn’t the best. It’s the primary reason many artists keep drawing and trying to improve in the first place.

If you see an artist getting no comments/likes/reblogs/etc., give them a little appreciation. Some of us work our butts off for just one good compliment. And “nice” or “good job” only goes so far. A couple full sentences can completely brighten an artist’s day. Seriously, I have had people practically jump up and down in their seats because I wrote them a constructive critique. Feedback means the world to people…

This goes threefold for OC pieces; fanart always gets so much attention but when someone compliments me on one of my own characters, it’s way more exciting

Reblog if you're often too shy to start a conversation with someone on your dash

A few weeks ago I was feeling pretty down. I was having trouble with a person and I was feeling very underappreciated as an artist, and while I did have my problems, it pissed me a lot. But instead of feeling sorry for myself (for once) I started thinking about other great, awesome artists I followed who could be feeling even shittier and not believing in themselves.

I admire them; each one of them. Each had their own perks that made themselves and what they create special. And I realized that hell, I love being told what people like in my work. Not just “you’re so good”, but “I love the way you draw this and that”. At that moment, I really wished someone would come over and tell me that. How many other artists around weren’t feeling that way, at that moment?

So the messaging started. I never wrote a model message, they were all personal. And the answers were all personal too. People who responded sounded honestly happy someone took time to tell them what they admired in them, and told them never to give up no matter what. The ones who didn’t, well - I know they liked it, because it was from the bottom of my heart.

So after this time debating if I should write this little thing or not, I made it.  I don’t know if there’s anythig similar around, but if it does, take this as a reinforcement. It’s not a campaign, nor a meme, nor will it grant you favours from your favorite artists. Please, don’t do anything if it’s for interest. Instead, look at the artist as another human being who struggles with daily life and yet make such beautiful things you admire so much. Call them by their name, tell them what you like in them. Or draw, paint, write or compose a lil’ something for them. Doesn’t matter. Show appreciation.

Send the love around to those who inspire you.

(sorry for any mistakes, English is not my mother tongue and it’s a bit rusty)

This deserves to be on my main dash, it’s a really good thing. Share some love, you might just make someone’s day and hey, that feels good!

This sums up how I’ve been feeling lately and have reached a similar conclusion but have yet to reach out. I shall!
