Hating myself: When you hate your drawings and your art skills

Imperfection

Creator

Sometimes you just hate your artwork. These past few weeks, I have been hating myself. Everytime I sit down to draw, I just feel like I'm not good enough. I'm not skilled enough, that maybe I should just give up. And when I feel that way, I usually take a break from drawing all together for a while.

This is one of the drawings I made during my depression period. This isn't what I want Alicia to look like, but I thought maybe if I drew her a bit differently I might shake myself up a bit.

So here is "SUPER SIMPLISTIC" Alicia, no added features, just bare mininum. I want to make Alicia a bit more simplistic, but I feel I lose some of the charm I've added to her when she was somewhat realistic. I don't know what to do anymore. I think maybe if I keep drawing, I might discover a way.

For years I struggled with completing my works. Year after year, I promised myself that I would start a comic. Year after year, I would end up with a folder of incomplete sketches and ideas. So I decided instead of letting this stuff sit in a folder somewhere never to be seen from again. I would make a series starring all of my incomplete sketches! Maybe one day, I'll finally complete something!!
