In the kindest of ways possible I'm grabbing you by the shoulders and shaking you brother you need to stop overthinking your art so much . . . You're an extremely talented artist there's too many horrors in the world to be getting upset every so often about your own craft. Like I don't mean to scold you I'm just passing you the ball and encouraging you to run with it because you deserve it.......

dont worry i understand what u mean!!

And also i get it, thats the Complex part, its double edged (??) right now bc im struggling so hard to pick apart a double standard (unsure if this is the right wording) or weird mindset i recently realized i have for myself wrt art compared to when i see other people make it, bc i dont understand how to get past it

but also this is contributing to the overthinking (see that one post about how sometimes too much introspection is harmful) I'm trying to climb my way out of it

#its not about Skill this time its about perception and im struggling sooooo hard #i recognize a warped point of view i have but idk what to do next. #id discuss it here further bc its not just ''i hate my work u_u'' dis time but im trying not to rant anymore #anonymous #skunk mail #there was a comment i saw on a post abt losing joy for art that was like #at this point i feel i make art just for it to exist #and thats been my whole life....! i feel really weird about intent and emotion in work lately. and subject matter. and Worth. #it feels really weird. especially since lately im even losing that...! #lately when i look at traditional art its like. i cant make art just for it to exist actually. feels like theres no point #⬅️ this is not the elaboration btw theres smthng else ive been grappling with
