that is how I feel that is why this is so surprising me.

Ah, same. But you should if you actually can!

I usually end up with more paper in the waste basket then with pictures I like.

I always think its going to look like crap. And I've been trying to learn how to do things on the computer. and just. ugh... If I had the ability to just sit and paint large pictures. Maybe they would come out better?

I run out of eraser or the picture is totally ruined by dark marks by the time I'm finished with something, that's if I try anyway haha. Man, I probably should just practice.

you and me both, lannie

Saaame, Wonderlands. That's why I draw on the computer most of the time. I can save a copy before I go trying to fix something in case I make it worse.

I think by the time the button and banners are done I wont have an eraser left on my pencil.

Use the white erasers. that i can't think of the name of. Or the squishy erasers. Leaves much cleaner erases.
Not to mention I would just sit and get a sketchbook journal or something. And pick something to sketch every day. Like oh look a lamp "sketch" maybe some graphite shading even.
It's really building my confidence anyways. But I need to do a person sketch a day at some point.

*hisses at weatherman for counting down to summer and saying we're getting closer every day*
/I actually hissed at the TV, yes

2/3 of winter is over
=(

*rolls around hugging the banner* OHHHHH SOOO HAPPPPPPPYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!

Amane should go shouth for the summer.... then she would have winter again.

SQUIRREL!

Your typos and throwing me off again, Lunna.

sorry go south. that is what I meant.

*tosses pillows around thread and hides under a blanket* Save me.

I haven't had enough K-pop today.
/it sounds like I'm dependent on it

I have a tablet and have tried a few time but godamn, it's a bit of a pain in the ass with my current laptop.
Aw, have faith! Though I guess that's something that is common with most artists even if they are super amazing.

Ah, I've use those squishy ones before when dealing with charcoal. They're pretty good!
That sounds like an excellent sort of practice actually. I might start doing that, thank you! I have a spare sketchbook (which I kind of don't want to open since it has all of my old stuff in haha)
That's really great it's making such a difference for you! Can you get a friend to sit for you?

*switches computers to get my K-pop fix*
/YOU HEARD ME
/GET MY FIX

I like the squish ones... but sadly I dont know where mine is. it could be in Port Angels WA or here in town. I have a few friends storing my stuff for me so I dont know where everything is.
