trying to make me jealous is the worst way of attempting to get my attention because ill just assume you don’t actually like me that much and that you’d be happier w/ someone else so ill leave you alone because i don’t like competing for affection and wish you the best in whoever you pursue instead
Shout out to artists who get drowned out by popular people’s art
shout out to artists who hardly ever get any reblogs
shout out to artists who feel like people are embarrassed to reblog their art
shout out to artists who constantly get told to “keep trying!” and “work harder!” even though theyve been doing it all their lives and still aren’t up to par with everyone else
shout out to artists who feel like they have no where to go because art is all they have even though it never gets attention
shout out to artists who JUST got a tablet as an adult because theyve never had rich parents to get them every little art supply they wanted
shout out to artists who feel like its too late because all the popular artists are so young
shout out to artists who had friends and family tell them they could be famous but got on the internet and saw how much better everyone else is
shout out to artists who feel like giving up everyday because they feel like they will always be outshined by other popular artists
you’re not alone. You can do this. It’s not a race, even if it feels like it a lot.
