I have been asked on various occasions about tips and tricks with making art. A lot of souls out there so unhappy with the work that they do. I've advice to give, by all means.

Stop. Not your work. No. Stop asking others. Stop asking what makes it work for them. Stop asking what makes them happy. Stop learning about THEM. Stop comparing yourself.

Start. Start doing what makes you think. Start drawing what pushes your buttons. Start making what makes YOU happy. Start your imagination. Start getting sloppy. Start.

A lot of us want recognition. Some of us want to be noticed. Others want to be realized. Few come to that conclusion. You may be disappointed with yourself along the way but you will know the gratification that it was your way. You may be disappointed with yourself in the end if you choose to follow another's.

You're so worried, my dear. I'm worried that you're worried.
