Today Sucked.

Thu Sep 24, 2009, 11:26 AM
Hate to get completely blunt,
But the past few days suck.
And it's not at my home school,
It's at my vocational where it starts to suck,
WHICH SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN BUT IT IS.
I actually came home today,
In hysterics because I feel incompetent.
Everyone made me feel like shit,
Just because I'm a cartoonist,
They like make cartoons and anime,
Sound like the scourge of the earth,
And then to top it off all my friends,
Who are fucking JESUS at drawing,
Made me feel worse by complaining that they suck.
Like I barely hand draw anymore,
While they are off at expensive art classes,
Becoming amazing at figure drawings and shit,
And I feel like I suck,
Like I'm worthless.
And I don't understand if cartooning is so bad,
Why does Disney make so much money?
Why is InuYasha after 10 years STILL played on TV?
Obviously there is something that I'm not seeing here.
And my dad and even the bus driver (both majored in art),
Where like, "Do what you like and when you have to draw,
Things you don't like just try your hardest,"
But like shit like that isn't gonna cut it for me to get,
Into a good college and I'm just about to like...
Fucking lose my mind.

I feel like I can add some wise words here. Unless you're completely full of yourself, no artist actually loves everything they do. That's the unfortunate part of art, we strive to be better off of what others do, instead of learning from our own mistakes (and it's makes most of us depressed in the process). But the total upside is, :D that we can only get better. That's the beauty of art. THERE'S NO RIGHT OR WRONG. There's only our drive to continue what we do and learn from those who have the experience.

I'm a proud cartoonist. I love telling people I'm an illustrator, and they like to see what I do. And hell yeah I like anime. If I want to draw big animu eyes then FUCK YOU. Seriously, just do what you love. I love going to see children movies, and I'm the happiest person at Toys R Us. I like drawing children cartoons and writing children books. It's what I want to do and I hope I can intern under Pixar, Dreamworks or even Disney.

Art is natural, you just have to let it come to you. Sometimes you can't learn things from other people, but you do have to know the basics. Cartoons are a fun style but you also have to learn realism. If you plan to go to an art college you'll see what I mean. (: I hate realism, but I try my best anyway. As long as you have good grades and confidence in yourself, you'll get into a nice school.

I remember back in Manasquan when all those shit seniors would get all up in my grill over my 'animu' drawings, but look at me now. Second year Digital Media Design major and I'm proud to tell everyone I'm an illustrator/cartoonist.

We're going over flash soon in one of my classes, and I'm super excited to work on a project for it. Haters are haters for a reason. Are they gonna give you money? Are they gonna pay your bills in the years to come? Fuck them and do what you love for YOURSELF. Make sure to mail them a shitload of copies of the cartoons/movies you make in the future. (;

tl;dr You won't remember them in five years so fuck what they say and love what you do. <3

I probably contradicted myself a lot...but expensive classes don't make your art, you do. So, you should go learn from others, but don't depend on them to make your work for you if that makes sense haha. You're on the right track, don't sweat it~
