Random rants about whatever happens to come into my brain at the time. >_>

Boredom

Today has been quiet. I started drawing something last night that turned out to be Kitarro and Kaz on the beach. Weird how that works out. I just need to color it and then it will go up. ... God I hate coloring.

Eh

So Im sitting at work thinking about a variety of things and I keep telling myself "you have got to get better at art." Lately all my stuff has been mediocre at best. I feel like I've hit my glass ceiling and can go no higher. It's frustrating seeing all these great artists display their work and think "man, I suck so much." But I do. I dont know how to break this style I've acquired but I realize it's doing nothing but holding me back if not pulling me down.

And backgrounds? I have been complaining for about a year now that I dont know how to draw backgrounds and I have tried everything I can think of to obtain this hidden power because I NEED TO LEARN TO DRAWN BACKGROUNDS!

I just want to make a piece of work that makes people go "wow".

Is that too much to ask?

Suggestions

Although I enjoy looking at peoples fan art sometimes I feel compelled to say something to help give them constructive criticsm. I always worry its going to come back and bite me though. I worry sometimes in saying something that I will piss them off...

But then I remind myself: I dont really care what people think.

Makes it all better in the long run. Heh.

Dreams Betray Us

I have spent the majority of my life living in a proverbial bliss hoping that in time something that I have fantasized in my mind will somehow manifest into physical form and become real. Have you ever done that? I do it all the time. And not with just life altering situations either. If ind myself sometimes just wishing for a taco to show up and say "Vecker, please, out of the kindness of your heart... EAT ME".

But things of that nature are only illusions and never to be taken seriously. We could spend forever wishing and dreaming for things to come true but unless I drive my ass to Taco Hell and pay $4.23 for a taco meal that taco in my head will never come to fruition.

... Im hungry.

What the hell is going on!?

Okay so I came back to the Otaku after a few months break and I realize I still have no idea how to operate this site. Ever since theyve changed over I have been gone and I havent come back. Its just so complicated and confusing. Like I told 'the boss', whenever I get on this site I just want to grab the first thing close to me and start stabbing it. That is how frustrating this is..

Anyway...

Yeah. Oh, Your:Star finally got me a Kitarro picture done. I was glad to see it. I love seeing my character through another person's perspective. Good times, good times.
