What is the meaning of life? How do you cope with knowing that a lifetime of knowledge of art that you've built up will be wiped away when you die?

By knowing the art I making using that knowledge will stick around

In an old sketchbook somewhere.

But how can we create art that sticks around for everybody to see? Architecture?

that's what I mean though, even if you teach the next generation, they too have to start from scratch. No one will ever reach the pinnacle, but if they did, they would die anyway and another person must spend a lifetime to learn it. Like building a castle in the sand, why do we do it?

Not everyone's gonna see your work, just like only a portion of people are gonna remember you as a person. Make work that those people will value. Make finished pieces that you'd be willing to share online or even put up on a wall. Make gifts for your friends, and the like

It's egotistical to expect anything you leave will be remembered forever. Just do your best and hope for the best. Living a life of content is not such a bad thing.

Who the fuck cares? i just enjoy drawing and learning.

The only meaning of life for all living creatures is to mindlessly reproduce, however we humans were cursed by the knowledge of how short and useless life is. The only thing that keeps me going forward is understanding that, i want to enjoy my life to the fullest and don't fall into the mediocrity that surrounds me. Art and knowledge is the meaning of life for me, it's what differences us of animals.

I Believe in reincarnation and ghosts and shit since I'm a psychic, honestly is even worst since all your hard work and self trials you had to through are going to someone totally unrelated to you with 0 of your identity and memories, who when they start draw he/her is going to learn super fast and be called a prodigy at young age when you had to go through all the work

That's a very important part of incarnation that people often ignore, that new person is not you, your identity is still going to disappear into that new person's consciousness leaving no trace when that person get past hers 5 years old

It's still pretty fucking terrefying
