Do you hide your drawings when family / friends are around?

>> No.4270589

I hide my drawings in a locked suitcase because everyone steals a look at my sketchbook.

I always hide them, but I also have a family sketchbook and a real sketchbook for smut.

Since I’m always telling people that I’m drawing, I should have something to show for it.

The only person on earth who has seen both sets of drawings is my wife

I’m not sure what I would do if I had kids...

My artwork is very intimate but I think the point of art is fishing as deep as possible into yourself, so I don't hide anything. It's obvious what my kinks are but it's not what makes me the most uncomfortable. If you are confident that you have good taste you can get away with weird art.

I mean the thought of people sifting through my sketchbooks while I'm not around makes me want to die but I don't make spectacular efforts to hide them either. I try to draw really late at night so no one looks over my shoulder or talks to me.

This is me. Except I don't draw anything remotely lewd, crude or gore. As a kid I used to always run up to my mom telling her, "look what I drew!" expecting praise but getting shamed for drawing human figures. She's a a bit of a religious nut and looks down on drawing human figures because apparently it's like "you're trying to play god" or some shit. So as I matured I grew super embarrassed to show any family my art since it features Human characters all the time. Even though my mom has mellowed a bit towards me choosing art, I can't break this mental habit of hiding my art and feeling insecure about it in front of family. I always minimize my drawing app when they come into my room, and on the few occasions she asks to see what I'm doing I just show her some random windows on my drawing program to confuse her with computer witchcraft. I tell the senpai that I'm doing graphic design instead of illustration.

It depends, I have shared a lot of works with others, I even showed nudes studies to my mom, but unless Im somewhere where everyone is drawing, I cannot draw while someone is watching me. It is something about being ashamed of how bad my pieces look before polishing them. I think this stiffled me badly, because I cannot doodle in public or when Im bored.

I dont understand how someone would be so embarrased to the point of throwing away their work. Once I finish something, Im very pleased with myself. It might end up looking crappy for my future self, but even if it does suck, I still feel pride if I put my all into it.

I don't anymore. I don't draw porn though I draw plenty of women, I have a lot of studies and since I also go life figure drawing often, it feels like these drawings are justified and I no longer feel embarrassed to show it if someone wants to see. Figure drawing is a good exercise, I improved a lot since I started doing that.

Though what bothers me most is that people I see at figure drawing class or my colleagues at work all seem very positive about my drawings and have given me plenty of compliments and even showed interest in owning something I made. (heck it's a good feeling when the model asks if she can take a picture of the drawing you made of her) but my parents or siblings not once complimented me. I sometimes paint in their presence, I often leave my work lying around, I also have lots of drawings of animals and vehicles which should be "safe" and I even pushed some of my drawings of old cars in the hands of my dad and he didn't say anything about it, he just looked at it and tried to talk about something else entirely. My mom doesn't even seem to acknowledge the fact that I draw and paint. And my little brother just jokes around and goes "haha drawing naked ladies again?".

It leaves me so conflicted, is it just my autism which doesn't pick up crucial information?
