As a current art student in college, critiques can be really fucking brutal and school in general. If you don’t push yourself enough you’ll get called out on it; even if you like one of your pieces sometimes you can find yourself wondering is it even good enough? Do I actually have something to say in the world or is everything I do too superficial right now? Am I mentally able to delve deeper and find new ways to approach things? It can be really hard trying to dig into your mind and get out of habits you’ve built.
Additionally, yes, sometimes there are assholes who think they’re the best (and they might seem to be at times, but most times they’re overconfident dicks who can’t take compliments or criticism) but there are a lot of honest and nice people too. There’s a wide range of people and what I love most is being able to see everyone else’s approach and voice in their work. We all have vastly different narratives and come from different backgrounds and it’s really great to see what we each want to say with every piece we create.
I really enjoy what I’m doing and sometimes I fucking hate it and just cry; maybe I’m a masochist but it’s the best type of pain to me because it helps push my work further. It’s great and it’s terrible but it’s everything I could want right now.
Anyway, I’m a huge sap right now and if anyone is considering art YOU SHOULD! It’s so amazing and wonderful and you shouldn’t be afraid to fail because you’ll surprise yourself with how much you have to give! Okay I’ll shut up now if you read all this have a good night (morning? Whatever it may be)
I just thought i'd let u know that this made me happy and more confident in my decision to pursue art so thank you!!
Aww man I’m so happy for you! You got this!! I wish you luck on your path :’) never be afraid to pursue what you want and continue growing
as a fellow art student i did not realise how rough they are w u after u get into college. u just really have to push through it and it can destroy you but u know at some point itll be worth it
I’m still in middle school about to be in high school but see comments and reading this manga makes me really want to prude art
I really love this comment. I’m considering minoring in art and I was really iffy about it because I haven’t picked up a pencil or brush in so long... but this comment really helped (:
What happened to that blonde chick he slept with?
She was just a hook up ig
The fact Kayden is willing to give up a major secret technique for the sake of healing Jiwoo is just so fucking incredible and selfless like holy hell my fucking heart okay?
rIGHt ╥﹏╥ you can see how Jiwoo really changed kayden
When I saw all those poker chips sitting in front of her, it brought me back to when Ted Mosby was drunk and playing poker with those shady looking thugs and sang “I built chip cityyyyy!!! I built chip city on ALL YOUR DOUGH!” And everyone was like TED STOP WINNING
Omg same. Hahahaha.
Her manipulation skills are off the chart and it’s truly so impressive
I mean, I know that they used to collect the heads of their enemies as proof of finishing their duties and such else, but I’ve actually never seen a pile of drawn heads before now
its pretty rare surprisingly for how often characters are quoted wanting to take the heads of their enemies but I think this may only be the 3rd story I'v ever seen actually draw it too lol.
I want the maid to be the love interest
Yes
isn’t she a child lol
Waaaaiiiittt but aren’t they both technically kids??? I think all of them are underage at this point in the story. I mean the MC has lived a long ass while but her body is that of a kid, right? Bro, I could be wrong though
well yeah, i thought the mc was above age but i’m not sure anymore, she seems to be 17-18 and the maid seems to be much younger
i think she said that she was 18 but the maid does look young
You know what they say, one man’s trash we keep picking them but they keep growing back lmao
