i realise im better off becoming an engineer instead of an artist

my asian parents treat me like garbage, it sucks that they would consider me a disgrace to the family if i became an artist while expecting me to be a master artist/musician/athlete just to have something to boast about. everyday its the same thing.

>go study anon

but when we're with friends and family they go
>why do you suck at art anon
>stop drawing cartoons anon
>why cant you draw anything good anon
>cant you paint something or make something we can display in the house?
>cant you draw anything realistic?
>make a family portrait anon

its so hard to even practice or develop my fundamentals because theyre always bitching about why i dont spend my time on something productive. i dont want to be an artist anymore. i just wanna be an engineer with a hobby. i hate being asian.
