Giving up on art?

Mon Nov 17, 2008, 4:02 AM
For a while I'd been unable to find a muse for art. I found myself thinking hard about whether I could even consider myself an artist anymore since I haven't even picked up a pencil in almost two years... Then this morning, I picked up a pencil on a whim, and found myself once again in the glorious frustration of hating my art and wishing to improve it.

Strange that even the feeling of hate spurs me further to continue improving myself. Odd that. In any case, I can truly say my skills have dropped like the proverbial rock...

I stink worse now than I did when I was in high school. And it makes me laugh.

I think I've gotten to a point that art itself is a mere hobby for me rather than my life. Something to pick up and mess with when I feel like it, then put it down and go about my life.

I can't really consider myself an artist much anymore. The label just doesn't really fit me. I don't know what I'm going to call myself now. :P
