people started finding my art and reposting it, to bad art blogs and forums. one of my friends said “i have bad news about your art” and linked me to a bad warriors art blog that had posted my drawing of scourge and i could see all the notes of people making fun of it.

i tried to brush it off, i asked for it to be removed, but it kept happening, and people started leaving comments on my deviations. they started adding my art to bad art folders on da. i was being harassed as a very young child.

at this point i had been drawing every single day, i spent hours drawing my bad warriors art. it was the thing i loved the most at the time. and now? i still draw everyday, but it’s so, so hard for me to post or share it, and i went through a long period of time refusing to draw because i remembered all the things people said about my art.

it didn’t help me. it made me wanna improve my art sure, but on the level that now everything i draw looks bad to me, every idea i have seems cringy to me. i’m terrified of people seeing my work because i am scared everyone will make fun of it again.
