When younger artists draw better than you  
by Keep-Yourself-Alive
 
Gotta say that’s a bigass insecurity for me…or at least one of many bigass insecurities I have. You draw so much better than me in clever, creative and fun ways? Y-yeah…that’s okay, you’ve had more practice and all–– but seeing teens who haven’t properly hit puberty yet be way further in life than me just makes mah stomach drop. “B-but, KYA, ya’ll r young too, ur like only a few years older than those prodigy artists :0” Yeh, but when I was 13 I couldn’t draw shit for life. I already deleted most of my 13-year-old gallery because, oh Lord, dat shit wuz ew. Who knows where these kids will be in 3 years…  
If ya’ll are a 13/14 year old prodigy who draws like an adult with thousands of watchers in less than a year–– just go home, find an agency to exploit yer talents, become a millionaire and spit on my grave when I die from eating food off the ground :,>
 
//yes, I am dramatic :I Being lesser makes me feel so bad. I mean this applies to everyone who is a bit younger than me and draws even a little bit better than me. Everyone. I am incapable of feeling happy for others because I am too busy feeling shitty about myself. I have so many bad traits I really need to work on >_>;
 
That horse I drew looks like it’s in pain :XD:

even the best birds can’t be heard all over the entire forest. besides, listening to just one bird is boring. there’s plenty of room for other birds.

It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been drawing. It matters how many drawings you’ve made of how many things.
 
Some younger artists draw better than us because they have more free time & draw more often, and possibly started earlier - I didn’t start seriously drawing until I was 15~16. A 14yo who’d been drawing since he or she was six would have been way more talented than me at that point.
