How would it not be?

1. You're doing something non threatening and fairly rare/eye catching (for normies to see in public)
2. Immediate conversation topic
3. Can show you are good at your interests which makes you look smart

That's if you're older than your early 20s. Maybe it's my perception but I feel like I get pity compliments now that I'm going for 30, instead of genuine encouragement. Older guy who draws isn't seen the same way, especially when he doesn't draw like Rembrandt.

when im at uni im usually drawing something in my sketchbook, whether im in class or in the commons just killing time
im on my third year and i can tell you that i can count the number of people that actually acknowledge me drawing with one hand, and only one of them was a woman, and every time it went something like "wow that looks really cool" and they just walk away
tldr im probably shit at my drawings

Really? I would assume when normies see a decent artist who is 30 or older drawing in public, they assume he's a professional whereis when they see some 20 year old, it comes off as kinda dorky for that age group where he's most certainly not an established artist and just doodling like a middle schooler in math class.

>> No.3017427

>when he doesn't draw like Rembrandt
Ironically Rembrandt's sketching style is rather loose and I'm sure normies wouldn't be able to see the quality within most of them.

Wangstas, unauthenticated suburban white males that listen to hip hop from the radio and attempt to emulate the way actual gangstas do.

The mindset should be to draw for yourself. I know you think "but I do already!", the key is that what other people think or expect of you while you're drawing is not important and most of the time, non-existent.

What makes you anxious is you're channeling your judgment through passerbys and strangers. Repeat to yourself that you'll make judgement later, and for the time being just draw. It's gonna help a lot deal with anxiety. Draw now, judge later.

You'll go back home feeling "oh man that drawing was shit and that person has seen it" instead of being paralyzed, and over time it's going to pass completely.
