im debating not making art anymore.
#very heavily leaning towards it#im just really disappointed and fed up#the only reason im not considering stopping fanfiction is bc I actually get interaction on it and pretty regularly#i have people who consistently leave kudos and comments and who come back during hiatuses to cheer me on and say they miss the fic#cannot say the same for my art at all ((((((:#even tho i enjoy drawing more and it comes to me way easier and doesn't make me burnt out for months at a time just from doing one piece.#it's less draining to do literally that (be burnt out for three months after each chapter) than it is to post my art every day and get#literally nothing#it sounds so whiney but genuinely#a lot of the pieces i do in terms of art are fandom works SPECIFICALLY because i know that oc art gets no interaction#and even then#only the wips im posting jsut for progress reports or that I'm posting right before I abandon nd delete from my sketchbook#get way more likes and reblogs than the finished work.#like literally why would i put the effort in to make a finished work#i jsut keep thinking back to my pro ana instagram accounts and how i would get hundreds of likes in a matter of minutes for making a fuckin#collage of aesthetic images i stole off pinterest#meanwhile my art accounts (that i have been dreaming of making since iwas 8 years old) get two in a matter of weeks. if that#idk#it really does sound like complaining and honestly#i am complaining#the art scene on the internet is horrible and so stifling to actual artists.#and it is not going to get better#so im jumping the gun now.
