Well.. Uuuh.. I wanted to know why you watch me? I mean.. I know some people doesn't even read my journal so eh. Might only get a very few responses. ^__^;

To what I wanted to say though..

I've been feeling abit insecure about my art lately.. And not many people seems to like the same things as I do..

So today, I was thinking abit.. People tell/ask me that I should draw more females, real life people, and to draw them.. Maybe they're right, what if I shouldn't be drawing males? What if I'm supposed to only draw characters that people but I don't? What if I should stop drawing, and go for writing stories instead? What if I should end both interests and go for sports and my love for singing?

It's not really something new.. I've been thinking about this for a long time.. And the people I've talked with this about haven't seemed to be too sad about all this..

*sigh* God, I'm hopeless, ain't I? I'm just complaining and complaining over and over again.. I've even been called a pro in the manga/anime style by my art teacher. I've been getting nice comments, almost no critique at all..

Then why am I insecure?

Beacuse I know there's people who hates me for what I'm drawing. For what interests I have. Beacuse of the "talent" people say I have. Beacuse I know that there's even more talented people out there, that I don't even know of, that's even better then me.

It's like a girl at my school. Everyone knows who she is beacuse of that she sings "wonderfully". I'm not the least impressed. I even had a hard time giving her a compliment when she sung at school, even though she gave me a compliment. She's my competition, that's why. It's eating me that I didn't choose Music class. I'd show everyone that even an amature can be just as good as a person that's a "pro". That's what's sad though.. An amature doesn't get that much attention as a "pro".. *sigh* The artist that draws puts much effort to be known, just as much as the artist that sings puts into singing.

Still, there's no room for us that draws.. Where do we belong? Are we just a name on a paper? Just a text on an illustration?

People don't know who I am, they can't even say the right lastname..


..Eh.. I'll draw or write something now.. Or get something done at least..


Drop me a line in MSN if you feel like it.. /:

There's a size limit(how big the canvas is in px), AND...


..One, ONE, of all the banners will be made a banner on the FRONT PAGE. That banner will represent the Fanart section. :3

Animated banners are always welcome. Remember to send us links if you want to have any pictures submitted. :' ) And YES, if it happens that you do as me, that you disable the download function and save your file as .PNG.. Don't worry. I'll fix it. The images will be uploaded on my photobucket BUT, if you're very afraid of your drawings.. Write your dA url somewhere on the drawing. My photobucket is protected by a password yes, but photobucket converts .PNG files to .bmp if you use the "direct link". >_>; Damn photobucket, it's sad you're so handy. ><
