Same! It’s like, what will I do if I mess this up?I don't do digital art (because I don't have any digital art tools or apps) but I would love to get into that someday. I'm mostly use graphite for my art. This is a portrait I did awhile ago. I don't do very many portraits though cause I find them rather stressful![]()
I have this great bring photo of a kitten on the wall that belonged to my great grandmother. And sometimes I think “isn’t it cool to have a great big kitten photo on my wall?” But other times, I’m sad, because that kitten must have grown up and died.
And I think that when I look at Storey’s Guide to Poultry Breeds, or History books.
But never when I look at my drawings (unless I drew a real subject.) Because my drawings of chickens and people look very real but they are always living in that moment, they are eternal, while the photos only capture a moment in life that is gone forever. And when you read fiction, the characters are always alive forever (unless they are dead) which is nice too.
Reality is good but I also like art, because it’s eternal.
