A journey through art
Added 2020-10-27 09:17:08 +0000 UTCThe following text is a brief history of my experience with art and how it has effected me.
A common question I hear is how did you get started drawing. For me, it just happened. I don't have a defining moment or anything. I would doodle when I was bored at school on any paper I could find. I did art classes, just because it was fun to me. It was only near the end of high school that I took drawing more seriously and actively wanted to get better. I never considered myself all that good, there where people way more talented then myself but I just stuck with it.
That then led me to study animation for two years and it was interesting but the cause had issues, due to bad management of the program and lectures leaving part way through the course. So during that time I taught my self how to digitally colour in my spare time and that interest led me to comic books and manga, so university was spent reading and drawing in my spare time. I'm not good with large crowd of people I don't know so I didn't go out to parties.
After leaving university, I worked as a graphic designer for some time and stopping drawing all together. Change jobs a few times, even did some free lance comic book colouring that went no where and eventual I started to get a depressed. So I thought that I needed to start drawing again and to try and create things for myself. Though I needed inspiration to start drawing again. so I turned to erotica and that slowly evolved into kink.
I have learned so much about different kinks and even discovered a lot about myself through my art, speaking to people online and doing research. I probably would not have learned what latex is I was not asked to draw it. I'm still learning new things and exploring them through my art, trying to understand where peoples passions for certain kinks come from. In the end I just want to create stuff that makes me and others happy.
That is pretty much it, I still need to improve. You normally you need a large amount of confidence to be an artists, as you need to believe that what your doing is amazing and that you can do anything. I'm not good at that, I just do the best that I can and use my feeling of self doubt to help me improve. So thank you to every for leaving a like or a comment, it has all been very helpful to keep me going, even though I'm not good at receiving complements. xD
I'm not sure if I should even post this as it seems a little self indulgent but It also seems therapeutic so I guess I might as well. Thank you to any one who gets through all of this.
