/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

>Do you call yourself an artist? For how long?
I used to because I was a dumb teenager.
>What is your "day job"? (AKA: how do you sustain your lifestyle)
total neet lifestyle right now
>How long have you been coming to /ic/?
2 yrs, not active
>How do you self motivate?
I got tired of seeing amazing art and not being able to make any myself
>What do you do after you self motivate?
hate myself and get all depressed for not being able to do it. Then practice
>Do you want to "make it"?
don't know what make it means anymore. I no longer want to be a pro artist. I would just really like to make art.
>What does "making it" mean to you?
I don't know. I used to think it was breaking into the industry as a concept artist or illustrator or w/e.
>How is your social life? Friends? Family? Partner?
distanced friends. My family is actually great right now. Partner was over like a year ago.
>Describe a day/week/month in the life of you
okay I'm not a total neet. I go to school part time for a comp sci education, but I'm not really taking it srs.
>Does any part of your demographic qualities (age, gender, sexuality, etc) effect how you draw? If so How so?
age does because I'm starting to feel like I am losing time.
>How does wanting to be "good at art" effect your life overall?
I don't know. I'm in like an existential crisis place right now. being able to draw would give me a worthwhile creative outlet while I think about life some more.
>If you could go back in time 5 years, what would you say to yourself?
I'd tell myself to just practice. Forget the mental noise and just do it.
>10 years?
Wake up. You lack a great deal of self-awareness and you're being a shithead. You're so lucky you don't even know it.
>20 years?
You're in for a wild ride. Have fun.
>2 years?
It gets a lot better
>What is your worst quality?
overly neurotic
>What is your best quality?
seriousness about life's meaning and all that
