THE METTROW WANTS TO KNOW ABOUT MY OC'S???? IM TRULY HONORED. (Click for better quality)

15: do you play any instruments? If so which ones do you play? How long have you been playing?

18: what's the best way to cheer you up?

Also wanted to thank you for making me get into drawing, I really haven't made much progress, but I'm glad I finally started! Drawing turned out to be one of the best things to help me with anxiety. You're a huge inspiration to me, just seeing how easy you can draw anything that comes to mind, this really messed with me in a very good way. It's very inspiring how easy you can express yourself through your drawings, and also have fun doing it. I said to myself that I would like to be like that one day HAUSHUSHSUSH

Anyway, Egg, I hope you're enjoying yourself! I made a drawing of Eggator to thank you for everything, I just love the little fella, and also thought you would like it! happy new year, Egg! :D

First of all; I’m carrying this with me in my heart. Not even kidding I’m printing that when I get home and putting it on my wall. I’m beyond touched and I really extremely appreciate it. My best advice on your art journey is do it for you. Make yourself happy, for reals.

On a different note! Drawing isn’t easy for me. I’m very proud of where I am and the ways I’ve managed to progress but art is all about building your skills and learning new things and that process has a LOT of growing pains. Ones that are worth it when you come out on the other end but pains nonetheless. I go through them constantly and they can suck ass. But! That’s the process, and all growth is good growth even when it’s difficult. I very strongly believe that art is something everyone can do if they’re willing to invest the time and patience. Easier said than done but still 100% fact in my brain.

I have things to show you. I’m at my mom’s house for the holidays so I’ve got access to my old closet:

This is a box in my closet full of used sketchbooks. Not all of them are fully used, I’ve given up on a couple, but these bad boys go back over 10 years. This is my oldest drawing in these books, I drew it when I decided I really liked drawing in 2009:

For the entire year, every single one of my drawings looked exactly like this. I don’t think I started drawing bodies til 2010. I also have a very on and off tradition of drawing Sonic the hedgehog every time I dig up a specific book. The oldest one here is 2010, youngest 2018:

I’m showing you these so you can see how long this has taken me. I didn’t wake up and say “I Will Make Expression”, flicked a pencil, and made it happen. I’ve looked up tons of tutorials and I often will look at cartoons, faces, and other people’s art and think “Why do I like this, what is happening in the face/body/colors/etc that makes it this way?”. And it’s been very fulfilling and heartbreaking and everything in between. Drawing isn’t easy for me! But I love it very much and I hope I keep finding new things to take a bat to. I also hope that when you hit a wall, you give yourself the slack and determination to find your way around it.

Also, for the first time since June 7th 2018
