This! Is! Important!
Some creators are bigger, some are smaller. Some creators learn from other creators. There's such a thing as inspiration too. Some creators start their pathway earlier than others and have better skills/bigger audiences.
But at the end of the day, we're all here because something makes us feel things and we want to share it with everyone who might feel the same. We want to share our ideas and thoughts and discuss them. We want to bring a smile to someone's day or cause a mental breakdown.
I was avoiding social media until I'm ready to face the toxic side of this. It's probably was a good decision but it makes me sad that creators have to face this and miss a blast of being a part of something, to see all the positive feedback. I don't have many followers and this honestly doesn't bother me at all. I'm still getting some amazing response that makes me so so so happy and motivated. It amazes me that random people share my ideas and I can have chaotic conversations about them, it's so cool??
Also, there was a period in my life when I was just sick of drawing. I couldn't bring myself to do anything and this was bad because it is what I do for a living. I had to practice at least weekly or I would've lost my skills and wouldn't be able to find a job and pay my bills. I needed a new portfolio as well. At the time I opened fanart world and this was something that brought me back in line. I improved so much by making fanart. It wasn't professionally made, but I found myself practicing every day which led to better skills. I tried concept art, storytelling, animation, so many different styles and techniques. I was never able to draw a character with emotions and more than just a bust portrait and now I can pull a multiple-figured composition. Makes me proud.
If someone told me back then what anon told this creator, I would've probably just dropped drawing at all. I was vulnerable, I was about to give up on my career.
No one should bring someone's spirits down just because they're not popular/skilled enough. Telling people that they're not good enough to create art and share it is wrong. Wrong-wrong-wrong. This is not true, do not believe them. You are good enough right now with your current skills. Please, do whatever makes you happy, please, share it with everyone.
Don't forget to exercise and eat today (this one was probably a note to myself but it could work for anyone, right?).
Love, Ellie ♡
don’t know whether you’re trying to copy or follow @blvnk-art’s popularity drawing jily but it’s sort of obvious that you’re not even close to their skill level. i would stick to fic writing bc i love your writing! hope this isn’t overstepping as i really do appreciate you in the fandom i just feel like nothing can replace blvnk
ouch
Serotonin delivery for all wonderful people here
Gee ♥️
I really love him with a messy bun help
So, I had this scene in my head Imagine Griffindor boys goofing around and breaking into the girls' dorms while they're out, stealing their clothes and makeup and sitting there pretty, waiting for judges to come back Now, here's Fred being oh so confident as always and Angie who's constantly questioning her friendship with these dorks. Of course, she adores their childlessness and wishes they'd never grow up, but she'll never admit it because who's gonna keep them disciplined if not that fierce girl? I don't ship Angie with any of the twins. I just don't see it. She and Fred would destroy each other and the whole universe. Let's be honest, two alfas together are too dangerous, right? Maybe Georgelina a bit, they might work out at some point. But I'm more of a Glee shipper. I see her as one of their best friends along with Lee and kind of like "You sound like our mom, Ang"

How are you guys feel if I'll integrate insta posts?
Holy cow, yes! Please gimme more tags

Maybe they meant to live like that, but in fact, Lee practically lived with George and Fred got so sick of constant third-wheeling that he moved in with Angelina. She doesn't seem too happy about it. One thing is friends with Fred, another thing is live with that chaotic evil. She always thought that it's kind of cute that he taps melodies with his fingers or pretends to be a drummer using all nearby objects. Well, she's ready to chop off these fingers of his with the broken glass on the floor which a few seconds ago was her favorite vase - mom's present. "And please, Fred, for f*ck's sake, put the damn shirt on!"

I have this headcanon that Fred has ADHD and at a young age, it was impossible for Molly to make him pose for family photos. Also, I believe he was much more active than George, which annoyed the latest to no end when he wanted to chill and enjoy the moment and his twin only wanted to "FIIIIIIIIGHHHHT POO FACE!!!!". They built a friendship a few years before Hogwarts when George snapped at him for being too much and for the first time he saw his brother so vulnerable and so hurt. They talked for hours about their feelings. Since then Fred knew when to give George space and George knew that Fred's behavior is not in fact about him being insensitive and annoying on purpose but the lack of understanding and support. He tried his best to make life easier for his brother for the rest of his twin's days and after his death created a line of officially allowed at Hogwarts WWW products for kids with ADHD to fidget with during the classes.
I LOVE IT SO MUCH OMG
I animated a bit from the Harry Potter Prisoner of Azkaban audio book, narrated by Stephen fry. Just for fun, don’t know if I’ll do any more of these.
Don't you worry, guys, your struggles are over
