Bullshit on your take.
I know very well those random mfers who draw INSANELY better than I do and we are in the same class AND they're younger than me.
And you know why? They have drawn for WAYYYYY longer than I have. It's that simple. Of course they also researched how to draw better and learn from their mistakes, but the core thing is that they drew MORE than I did.
Not a single person that draws INCREDIBLE hasn't gone through a shitton of time drawing things they though were horrible, and maybe even to this day they still think their drawings skills are subpar, but that's what makes them hungry for more.

Thank God. It's been almost an hour since someone posted this. I was beginning to go through withdrawal.

How do you know how much those rando mf'ers practiced in their own time though? Plus not all practice is equal. If you don't challenge yourself in your practice and analyze what your weaknesses are (and subsequently build exercises around them) then you're likely to flatline or slow down your progression.
Like I've never took art academically beyond early year schoolin where it was compulsary and peeps have said I was naturally talented when truth is I've just spent an insane amount of time doing that stuff when I was free.

A walk will help you a lot. At first it was tiring when i tried it out but i got used to it and i love walking and it's healthy to be active in general so you could try that

Came here to say this, there is definitely a huge element of raw talent to be an artist, I did 4 years of art in high school, I still have the drawing skills of a brick

Bullshit. I took art classes in high school and college, and rando MF’ers would drop in and make my stuff look like dogshit by comparison. Not sure why this cartoonist feels the need to bash natural talent but it is absolutely a thing and should be appreciated.

Awesome. Well done.
Always keep a resilient guard against anyone that has a negative influence, whether that be through how they behave around you, what they do to you, or what they say to you.
Your attitude is EVERYTHING, and you’ve already PROVEN to yourself that you’ve got this right. Optimism, Positivity, Will. Just keep going.

All I can say is to not be complacent, things can change at any time so keep working hard without comparing to other's circumstances. Remember, it was a lot harder back then to be successful though now we're in the age of information so with determination, you can make it happen. Don't gloat about your success, the worst thing that can happen is peaking around your 20s and struggling to further yourself. Good luck!

They are. And if a person types "thdn" I'm not going to say a word, because I've done dumber typos than that myself. But when many people born to English don't know the difference between a word for next, consequently, or at a certain time and a comparison term used with words like larger, greener, sleeker, and even dumber, it makes me shake my head.
