really though to be genuine and vulnerable and maybe even a little breedable on main for a moment i repost my art a lot bc it took me like almost two decades to finally look at my own stuff and think “this is good” and not hate myself for not doing a better job and its not really because i got better, i did but that’s not the point, i got more comfortable with what i thought was “failure” and just let me bar drop to a point where i realize it doesnt have to be perfect it can be mid and that’s fine its great actually. like. i like my art a lot now and the things i dont like about them i can change. i have time im only in my 30’s. i have like. decades to do what i want and feel good about it.
so basically if you think you’re not doing enough at your age or your art is bad or you’re scared to fail, just let that bar drop a little and relax your grip and close your eyes and have fun and i guarantee you’ll feel better in the long run. like unlearning perfectionism is A Fucking Struggle but it’s necessary to live a life worth living because if you’re always running at your top speed you’re not going to take a break to recharge and rest and you’ll gradually lose speed and fall behind and literally die miserable
just have fun i guarantee it’ll pay off
tldr just fuck it up and dont care and have fun but still fuck it up out there. dont hurt anyone including yourself and your feelings but absolutely tear it up and dont care who see it
