"Our own creations can be our biggest enemies." -Me.
A tribute to all the artists out there struggling with the imperfections they see. We are our own biggest critics, and we beat ourselves up a lot when we can't draw something the way we want. No drawing in our eyes will ever be perfect. I have been doing this a lot lately, so i just let the mistakes happen in this drawing. No matter what skill level you are at or supplies you have or how old you are, you can draw.

That is so true! I want to look at this drawing forever. I love it, and your message is spot-on! It's good to know that you're not the only one when it comes to personal criticism in sketches. this drawing is absolutely amazing, and I admire your skill in making it look so real :)
