i want to help people who wants to be helped, draw everyday.

I have been drawing/creating for 3 years straight now. I think helping others helps expose me to more types of art.

My goal is to be able to draw what I want and be able to live off that income. I don’t need fame or fortune. Just enough cash to continue doing the thing I enjoy doing.

i just love it... it's something you just do cause your good at it and want to see the improvement over years... and the struggle/pain it provides

Fame and Fortune, i'm a dropout social sperg and my only career choice at this point is to expand the skillset of drawing I built as a kid to the point I'm good enough to make money from it.

I want to celebrate nice things.

Simply to give my imagination life. I almost never share my stuff, and enjoy seeing progress.

>>4379527

Couple things:

I want to create a graphic novel
I want to draw things stories for my child
Being able to create things is amazing
Drawing is also a bucket list skill for me

>I'm 31. Ngmi

I just want to be able to make some sort of low-quality pixel art or something. I think making a videogame would be fun, and I can already handle everything involved other than the art.

>>4379574
you know what... i have to amend my earlier statement. honestly, i think people need to be good at something to be happy and need to be improving at something to not be depressed.

When you meet a new person and they ask you about yourself. How can you live with yourself if you're just a talentless faggot? If you're a buff chad and you have a black belt or something that's great that's cool. You have dedicated yourself to something and accomplished something. People might actually care to talk to you because you probably have some wisdom and some things you could teach them. That's someone I want to be friends with. No one wants to be a loser. But it doesn't have to be fighting. It has to be the thing that you're passionate enough to put in the amount of work it takes to git gud.

some of us are not willing to get kicked in the head. but hey im ok with drawings for hours. im okay with having my drawings scrutinized. im okay with humbling myself and taking advice from basically anyone and trying their techniques. im ok with carrying around a sketchpad and pencil everywhere i go and with posting my drawings online everyday for years. So drawing is my thing. I know I'm not great at it, but I'm better than I was last year and I'm far better than normies. Aside from Anons, actually no one has ever insulted me over my art, not even a family member. I have no fear. I feel like I have no vulnerability. Like I'm moving in the right direction and I'm unstoppable. Short of a medical condition where I lose the use of my hand or eyes, I'm not controlled by shame, ego, political correctness, laws. I don't care what girls I want to bang think. I don't care what my grandma thinks. I'm just sick of being mediocre but I'm more than willing, I'm actually eager to drudge through the uphill battle to get to the high ground. I'm just grinning like a retard moving like a missile. I don't shit on anyone else. I love people like Proko. It's all so positive. Nothing can stop me

All of the above.

Exactly this. One time I decided to stop drawing cause it wasn't a good career choice. I got heavily depressed for weeks. As soon as I restarted, day by day, I started feeling well again. Drawing is my point. My point in life. What's the point of living if there is no objective you can work for?

Whenever I'm feeling useless, I draw. Right now I'm unemployed, living with my parents, awaiting the start of my Master's so I can be a highschool teacher. I have no idea if I'll ever live of my life or not (and I'm pretty far away from it), but one thing I know, I'll always draw.

A girlfriend.
I want to learn to draw so well so I can draw portraits of girls I like so they notice me so I can date them. Not all of them. I would be happy with only one.

>>4379527
Drawing is fun and i like being good at the things i enjoy. If i get some money from this hobby it would be cool if i don’t i can always have a cool skill that i can show to my friends and love ones

>>4379527

I just want to draw anime tits

An easier way to communicate my ideas because I'm a bit of an autist in any other forms of communication.

To be honest I'm not sure anymore.

I have been trying to get myself to draw in a more committed fashion however I just feel lost. The only thing I want to make art is just another outlet to express myself.

I'm worried about my future as my mental health has hit the shitter pretty hard and currently about to move back to my parents to save up money and get back on my feet once more. My doctor and counselors have been very concerned about me likely having schizophrenia and other possible disorders like PTSD or something like that.

If I learn to commit myself into this hobby then hopefully I can make some recovery of my illness.

It is art that seeks to gain from me.

Combination of fun, making people happy with the stuff I produce, but mostly because I just have ideas in my head I need to get out.

I've only just started to take it seriously a couple months ago. Honestly, I know I'm never gonna be able to be at the top and I'm fine with that. I just have fun doing it. I started as jokingly "redoing" one of my best friends drawings in MS Paint with a mouse, and I found I actually enjoyed the act of creating. Since then I've stopped playing as many video games and just listen to music and draw. Idk, it puts me at rest like I've got a purpose finally. Thanks Caleb, you're the fucking best.

>>4379527
I liked to draw video game fanart as a hobby but then I tried livestreaming one day and a guy gave me $10 to draw something for him on stream. After that I quit my job the very next day where I was making $12 a month and started studying to make a living with commissions. Now I have improved a lot but I still consider myself a hack and dealing with money gives me anxiety so I rarely take commissions even though I haven't had a single cent in over 6 months.

The bar for me is pretty much on the floor at this point but I still can't make it and I don't know how to overcome this. I'm currently just earning enough to feed my dog.

>>4379527
Gain? Joy of creating or highlighting existing beauty of our world, its people and their deeds.
Yep, sounds true.

>>4379527
Would be nice if i made a nice little internet comic.

>>4379527
It's really fun. I look forward to nothing more than getting home at the end of my shift, putting on some music, and drawing. It's decompression time that's purely for me and me alone. That's why I keep doing it.

I want to get rich than use the money for world domination.

>>4379527
1. Live off it
2. Make people happy with it
3. Be satisfied with my work.

fun, demonstrate superiority, spite for nigger/spic/jew 'culture', lots of rewards for really cheap, people think youre a fucking sage or some shit and put you on a pedestal, project a false illusion of goals to cover other plots. etc

earn 600$ dollars a month preferably on patreon

>>4383081
what's with this 600$ meme? you can easily make double with working 20h a week and still have enough time to draw

I am Polish too, but I need to earn 6000$ per month from any kind of legal art (painting/drawing/singing). Any ideas?

>>4379527
I just like doing it and hope I can make a living doing it.

Don't have any delusions about becoming a world-famous artist that everybody knows. The chances of that happening are smaller than winning the lottery.

I want to express the ideas I have that can only be fully grasped through aesthetic.
If I get good at it I can live of doing so and therefore express more ideas I have with even more nuance.
I could also express other's ideas.

Maybe also draw porn really appealing to me.

>>4379527
Satisfaction

I have been drawing things the same since I was a kid and changing that all up and learning principles of drawing and improving is satisfying as fucj

For storytelling purposes. I don't do well with written words, so I choose the visual medium as my vessel.

i am fascinated by the creative process

>>4379527
To Not feel like a failure

>>4379527
Mostly because I enjoy it, but if that was the only reason I dont think I'd try so hard to improve. I think I spend so much time drawing because It's my only skill and I know if I can get good enough I could apply it to some sort of career and then have the oportunity to work doing something I like.

i don't know anymore.
it used to be to be an equal in a drawing group, who inspired me to start in the first place, but now I hate that place and those people and even the things they draw.

Money

>>4379527
I just want to draw fetish porn for my fellow degenerates.

>>4382315
Do you have a online gallery where I can check out your work?

I want bitches. Bitches love art.

I've discovered that I want to get to a professional level where I'm happy with my art and other people seem to enjoy it but I don't want to make money off of it. I'm too much of a lazy cunt to want to take commissions or sell prints or keep up with a patreon, which sucks because art as a hobby gets expensive.

>>4379527

I honestly like making art. It is a strange process where I can completely detach from reality and create something, that usually pleases me very much when it's done.

I like to create new things in my life, after a big change of life situation where my apartment walls are filled with only white.

I like the idea of being a kind of a crazy artist. I get the biggest kicks when I get absolutely hammering drunk and go through with a totally insane painting idea.

I have no wish to financially profit from my paintings. But that would be a funny, welcome but albeit ridiculous idea. No expectations.

Still I love to hear (mostly positive) opinions of people about my paintings. Sometimes, actually often critical opinions are funny and interesting also.

I guess I just like making art, posting it, giving it and talking about it (also others' work not just mine, but still mostly mine).. wow.

Is is strange that I imagined all 3 of them running a train on her

>>4379527
just fun. I guess fame among my friends, as they like some of my stuff.
I still consider myself too /beg/ for charging for my shit though.

I want to make people happy when they see my stuff. If I can inspire someone to do something creative then that's good.
I have a presentation at my workplace in 2 weeks (engineering company) and Im gonna do it on quick intro-level drawing skills, try to inspire some people.
But I won't lie, it's not entirely selfless. I like it when somebody says they like what I did. I just moved out on my own, so now I don't have anyone to share with really cares and I do miss that positive feedback.

>>4379527
to push the limits of human capabilities

Going to answer truthfully.
I just want to have fun creating whatever I want. Hopefully people jump in and view/like what I put out, but it doesn't really matter if they don't.
Im studying to be a surg tech, so this won't be my main source of income anyway (ofc, a nice stream of merch income wouldn't be too bad).

>>4387020
none, but people who burn for the craft itself will have an easier time putting in the effort and are less likely to be discouraged or distracted

if you draw because you want a partner/friend/money or fame your goal is not getting good at art for the sake of it, but because you believe it will help you achieve your dream of having social status. which it probably won't.
