Description Lately I've been feeling a little down when it comes to art... I just feel like there are so many people in this world my age(13) and even younger with more talent than me, so why think I have any sort of special talent? But I've been getting over it, and embracing what I can do, and trying not to compare myself to others.

SO I decided I'd draw something today! I ended up coming up with this, and I thought it looked alright. I hope you all enjoy it, I'm really trying to improve!

  Comments along with your fave are always really appreciated!

OH MY GOSH YOU HAVE NO IDEA I'VE BEEN FEELING THE SAME WAY TWINSIES!!

But are you kidding me?!?!?!?!? You're super talented! I wish I was that talented when I was thirteen! DON'T BELIEVE ME JUST VISIT THE DARKEST SPOTS OF MY GALLERY AND YOU SHALL BE SCARRED FOR LIFE!


I was always so immature when it comes to art in comparison to my sister who had a really developed and beautiful style at my age right now ! But art really isn't a contest! Its just a skill, a hobby, entertainment or a job! There's no perfecting art it knows no bounds and no one will ever find the end of it! YOU are a VERY good artist, I can see you going into things like anime animation (lol that phrase man that phrase) and also being an illustrator for books at THIS age! Imagine what you can do when you're so much older, and at the rate by which you've been improving! You're a really big inspiration to me actually! Your art inspires me to keep improving and tweaking my style honest to goodness because I have been in the same place for a year! And honestly no other artist has given me that inspiration and also shown me it can be done within such a fast period of time!

Now about the art, GORGEOUSNESS! I love this style of yours! Her eyes are so captivating and I feel emotion simply screaming out from the page! Her hands are so well done! GREAT JOB ON THOSE HANDS ARE SO HARD! I love the design of the dress and I especially think that the shading really captured the emotion along with the eyes. But honestly, the eyes show me a whole story! There's the facial expression of course but the eyes just really fit with the title "treasure me". I almost feel like she's homeless and she wants a family or something!! I can see her at the door looking up at someone LOL!!!!!


Anyways,

AWESOME JOB I LOVE THIS SO MUCH <3

AH MAH GASH THIS COMMENT MADE ME WANT TO CRYYYYYY~!

It really means so much that I was an inspiration to anyone, let alone you! You are without a doubt one of the kindest most talented people I've ever had the pleasure of getting to know, and I really treasure YOU! (Eh, eh? Not bad! See what I did there?? X3)
But no really in all seriousness this comment basically made me throw all he crap I was feeling away. The fact I can inspire someone that so greatly inspires ME makes me feel incredibly happy. You're certainly someone who doesn't give themselves enough credit. The fact you even glance at my art which is still very much in the making, makes me feel loved and very special. It really is hard for a typed message to convey all the happy emotions you've made me feel! ^^ I mean it.

Thank you for being such a kind, loving, selfless friend. I thank God for you.

You're quite welcome~ >w<
It is good~ :3 You should have seen my art when I was 13. It was so awful xD 
You should these great artists to help move forward and progress~ Observe their art and if there is a certain aspect you like you can include it in your art~ ^^
But there are people that probably have been taking art lessons since age 5. When I took music lessons at this arts center there were these amazing artistic kids. Anyway, they had someone teach them so your art is amazing for being on your own~
