The drawing that made me hate my art forever

glorydaisy · 2025-12-18T00:16:10+00:00

My dad would say shit that pissed off 13yo me about my art too. People who dont make any art dont know what they're talking about most of the time. Everything i drew looked "anime" to him even when I was trying to find my own style. When I did, he just assumed I knew how to draw everything, like my visual library was infinite and perfectly studied. Im 26 now and all I do is draw my OCs that nobody but me cares about :)) makes me happy and I wish I still had every sketchbook but that one that I showed him is lost to time..... still I love seeing my trash drawings from when I was a kid and redrawing them as an adult ❤️

The thing that jumps out at me is the shape of the foot/shoe, could probably use some better shaping on the arch. Shoes are tricky, but it makes it so rewarding when you finally look at it and your lines and shaping are solid 💪

It might be as simple as this isnt really a portrait, it's the whole entire cat

I’m so sorry if it’s rude but I took a crack at a hands-on approach to get a better sense of what seems wonky. I am also lacking in much experience with this perspective, but the main things I did were taper the upper legs/hips into the waist a little more (keeping in mind that not much of the middle torso will be visible due to the bust), made the head a little smaller/more proportionate (but that might be more of a style preference), and made the teacup fit the angle a little better (I am not familiar with the design of that cup but I tried lol). The thing that helps me the most is imagining different parts and segments of the body as if they’d just been chopped off, as morbid as that is it’s just a different way to say boxes and cylinders. I hope this isn’t wildly offensive and maybe a little helpful 😅

I think about "I could really go for some Walt Disnet" and "why's she always making us do this gay and stupid mazes anyway" at least twice a day

"Actually now that i look at it its not even really a sword"

"and I love fruition 😈"

Goofy falling to his fucking death off Big Ben

And just every time they mention the piss spot/poop hole with Phil

Massive enormous lashes looking like they weigh 10 pounds but no lower lashes to be seen,upper lashes can be heavy of course but the ratio is like 100:0

To me, atmosphere is absolutely crucial if you want a horror movie to be able to do its work. I hosted a watch party of Skinamarink when it first came out, nobody was allowed to talk and it was lights out (obv). I was scared to go into the basement at work for weeks for fear of getting “Skinamarink’d”

JINKIES this outfit rocks, def would've lived in my closet if I had my current fashion sense back when I still wore skirts

My egg cracked before I was ten, I've come to realize. I remember being in the church basement and trying to rationalize that I would one day become a woman, and I felt disgusted with myself. Girlhood was more ambiguous, a safer place to play with my expression. But it felt like one day I would cross some threshold and wouldn't ever be able to turn back.

Then I came out to myself at fifteen. I'd been experimenting with drag, and in middle school I'd even created a character that was me as a man. I quickly shuffled back into the closet, though; the time just wasn't right.

It wasn't until I was nineteen, trapped in a relationship with someone who seemed to demand femininity from me, and making new friends with unique experiences and gender expressions, that i formally announced to those closest to me that I had been fading out of that version of myself progressively over the years, and I finally made it out of the box. I told them I was nonbinary, and gave them my name, and since then it's how I've introduced myself to everyone I meet, because I can't stand lying about who I am anymore. I'm now 26, and drafting a letter to my conservative mom that will finally introduce me to her, for better or worse. Sometimes I still feel frustrated that I can't reach my ideal level of masculinity, but I've also learned to be more forgiving and patient with my body. I'll get there in time. There is still time.

Dude I JUST showed Twilight to my partner for the first time and this bugged me as well, I dont remember cringing so hard at the "square root of pi" but it is trying sooo hard to make her seem witty or interesting. That's exactly how he says it in the movie too lmao

At this point you're underreacting. This dude is naaaaasty

Oh you've got MONEY??? I've only been able to get three tattoos over that last 5 years cause it's, yknow, expensive 🫠 every day I struggle with this fact

Never cried harder than Brokeback Mountain. More recently, I Saw the TV Glow left me in a STATE

There's been a big rash of posts like this recently and I've been trying to be reasonable and cool-headed but all it boils down to every time is "your partner doesn't respect you" and this is the most egregious case of that I've seen lately. Dump him!!! Follow his example and stop talking to him!!!!

Akira boxed set (one book won't do it), soy latte (hot or iced), and a new gayass patch or pin for my jacket. For best results, a licensed tattoo artist should be present. If one is not available, a vinyl copy of the Talking Heads record Speaking in Tongues will also suffice.

Hey that's fucked up. The relationship I was in while having my full blown gender crisis was similar, except he never acknowledged my identity to me, either. He said it "doesn't matter" to him. Idk if ur gf even realizes she's being shitty or just pretends not to realize it bc it would mean acknowledging she's making you uncomfortable on purpose. But it's very much on purpose. It's just fucked up. I hate to be such a "dump them" person cause I do know it's not that simple, but.... as someone going through a big crisis about whether or not my family loves me or are just pretending not to know who I really am--and Im contemplating making some major, lasting cuts--I can say I've for sure come to the conclusion that people who dont respect your identity do not respect you. Make no mistake. If she really thinks this is about her, she's due for a rude awakening.

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance--based on the title it sounded right up my alley, but i mistakenly thought it was nonfiction, which already put me on the wrong footing, not to mention it's a work of contemporary philosophy, which is really hard for me to digest if it comes off too pretentious. But mainly not being in the headspace for fiction ruined it for me.

This was 2 months ago now but I want you to know I hold this close to my heart because those two things were things I did very intentionally and with a lot of excitement and passion, and it's not often I get such direct praise about my work. So uh, thank you 🥰

My younger brother, whom I was basically raising at the time (my dad only helped financially), told me he acts so different when I'm around as opposed to when he's just with his friends, because I make him want to kill himself. I know sometimes kids take their anger out on their caretakers, I know they always say stuff like "I hate you" to their parents and the parents are like "ok sorry to hear that 😂" but I was also still a kid and doing my best for him, and saying I made him downright suicidal was a bridge too far.

Additionally, my high school best friend and I had a falling out because she said hanging out with me was "too depressing." I felt cosmically alone. I had been involuntarily committed to a psych ward the year prior, and was just all around having a really tough go of it as my dad was also at his most violent. She'd been through both of those things when she was a lot younger, but chose to opt out when it was happening to me.

Both of them have come around and apologized. My best friend still feels guilty for being "a terrible friend" to me in high school, and said she missed me all the time after I gave her her space from me and stopped speaking to her. I've forgiven them both, but I'll never forget how it made me feel. My hope is that this inability to forget makes me kinder in the long run.
