As a learning artist myself, allow me to remind you that you dont need to be the next Picasso or Van Gogh. Make art that is beautiful in your eyes first.
Mad props for trying something new!
hey! I've decided I will be learning to draw! I'll be documenting my journey on here because hey, someone might see and start drawing too!
Yeah it's a bit late in life but so what? you only ever get one shot and like heck will I pass up on creation just because I'm supposed to be sad regretting my life and watching the news. That's silly. Much better to dive in!
NASA putting mice in zero-g environments is one of the funniest fucking tests anyone has ever done and I hate having to hand that to them. Put those beasts in a situation.
I made this a long time ago but for some reason never posted! It is my quick guide to protecting yourself against burnout as a person with ADHD and ASD.
Of course it is all about meeting your support needs at the end of the day, which are completely individual and may vary over time, but this could function as a guide if you have a hard time figuring out where to start! ๐ซถ๐ป ๐๐๐
Sometimes, my friends will say something to the effect of "I can't create art, I dont have the skill."
Bestie, you do not need to be the next Picasso, Tolkien, or Michelanglo to be an artist. What it takes to be an artist is a desire to create and improve.
Its like climbing a mountain. If you stare at the top, you miss the step in front.
You do not have to create anything beautiful, not even in your eyes. You just need to take the next step.
Side note: i notice this the most with people who are neurodivergent. This may be because we often come to the conclusion that we are less than. You aren't lesser, regardless of your ability. A lesser artist is one who does not try.
