Never Give Up

For quite awhile now, I've seen plenty a people on the internet get upset that they don't become insta-art sellers over night. Well, I'm here to give you some words of encouragement. If you keep practicing, you can make some pretty great progress!

I wanted to make a post where people could post some of their very first art pieces, and compare them to where they are today, in hopes that it encourages others to keep practicing and growing as an artist.

Here are some of my very first tags:



And here I am today, with plenty of room for improvement still!



Never give up....NEVER SURRENDER

You also don't need a fancy program. I do everything with MS Paint.

When I get annoyed at my art, all I do is go back and stare at those three pictures for a couple minutes, laugh, and start sketching again. c:
