Infinity Repeating - A Draft

Seeing you work with clay is making me want to try! I've wanted to work with polymer clay for years but I was always so scared

Anyway, thank you for allowing us to see your progress! I can't wait to see the final result :)

nothing to be scared of, the clay is cheap and you'll be wasting nothing (it's only now that you're wasting time not having tried it) - go on, create, make mistakes and have fun!

I want to share as much of me (seemingly) failing as possible, because I feel like everyone I know struggles with perfectionism and overall a very bad/toxic mindset that social media taught us - everyone posting only their best work makes you think they surely never fail and therefore you suck. It teaches you mistakes are something very, very bad and makes you scared of even trying to make your own stuff, which is wrong on so many levels. Mistakes aren't good or bad, they're an essential part of the process you have to accept (and everyone makes them, no matter how experienced they are); you won't make mistakes only if you don't do anything, and we don't want that!

I learned to accept this a rather hard way - the shittier my life got the less serious I'd get (about myself, my art and running my socials) and failing at anything became a joke (ah man, I only have to remake it another 60 times and we'll be good!).

SO GUYS try not to take your art too seriously - everything can either be fixed, started over or remade as many times as you wish

up drawing everyone's favorite character (work in progress)

the idea is based on a Polish socialist realism poster thing - for now it only says 'REMEMBER' with the rest cut out, but I'll obviously translate the slogan if I finish the drawing (then you'll find out what it is that you shouldn't forget about) I wanted to do this for a very long time, because I can't get over how Jayce looks exactly like the type of idealized men that the socialist propaganda posters would depict, and I find it extremely funny not only that, but also the slogans that were used back when Polish People's Republic was a thing are now hilarious

I also can't unsee how he kinda looks like or has the same weird, kinda cursed(?) energy as Alex the Lion from Madagascar, so that's what I used for his head for now (it is also great at conveying all of the feelings I was feeling when spending hours on the drawing) I've had a 4 months break from art and (as always) ended up setting the bar way too high, so this will most likely take forever I hate how I have no idea what I'm doing, but instead of actually learning I'll be wasting hours trying to figure things out on my own and getting angry with myself, because everything takes so much time and still doesn't look any good - I really wish I could work on my skill consistently and learn like a normal person, maybe then I wouldn't be so far behind despite (theoretically) doing digital art for half of my life

anyway, that's probably how my posts are going to look like for the most part, because I need a place to ramble (I have no one to talk to), which I used to do a lot on insta story; still figuring out how to do this on Tumblr without scaring people off with walls of text

thank you for 4 followers, how do you guys feel about more "rat metal" posters? I think they're neat
