>there are people out there who actually think most professional artists enjoy drawing

>i'm lazy yet i feel guilty for being lazy and now i'm in an endless loop of guilty lazy

They trained and got a professional career in drawing despite not enjoying drawing? How does that work?

>I'm too ambitious and impatient. great art moves me, but my pathetic scribbles make me want to quit and never try again
>there's so many conflicting ideas, teachers and lengthy materials that I don't know what to choose and who to trust

Work kills joy

>i have no talent, people without it can never make it

>I can't be a pro by October, why try

>>4738566
What's going on in October?

>I don't want to draw let me out of your house I don't want to make it!

They enjoyed it at first. But when they became a professional and had to deal with deadlines and constraints, all the joy that got out from making art suddenly disappeared

Just like any job, shocker. Do you people think art as a job ain’t the same like any other?

This is acceptance stage, my post is denial

Talent

I'm a creativitylet. I can't come up with anything original to draw. I have no taste nor sense of aesthetic. I only look at other people's work and think "Yeah, there's no way I could have come up with that out of nowhere". I also have no drive to do any original work, I'm just a copyfag and not even a good one because I work digitally and never bother to finish things.

Find an idea guy and draw whatever he says

>>4738447
Post em gif, faggot.

>>4740414
That sounds extremely humiliating to me. I'd rather stay a copyfag or give up entirely. But I've thought about it, maybe if I see no other way.

>muh aphantasia

>>4738447
“Fuck you honkys this is just my style”

>>4739348
So if you want to continue to enjoy art, DON'T aim to make it.

>i started too late
wait nevermind that is a real excuse. youre pretty much doomed if you didnt start drawing till your mid 20s

>Average life expectancy is 70s-80s
>No shortage of people in their 50s and 60s painting what they love and doing it well (see wetcanvas for happy older painters)
>Even if you start at 30 that’s still 30-40+ years to master your craft
>But you’re DOOMED if you didn’t start before your 20s
Keep the excuses rolling

>>4742138
but youre completely ignoring the exponential decrease in the brains ability to learn new skills with age
