Description Here is artwork from my latest YouTube video, in which I gather various bits of advice from my viewers in answer to this question: "What Do You Do When You Hate Your Own Drawings?" We've all been there before, and the tips in this vid could really help you cope if you find yourself in a similar situation.

You can also see most of the creation of this drawing, from light pencil sketch to final image. Thanks so much to those of you who choose to give it a watch!

All my best,

Mark

The wisdom in your video isn't new to me, but it's still encouraging to hear it again from another person I hold onto every drawing I make, even the few I lost nerve and squibbled on. I need a thicker portfolio

I should go watch that video then! I haven't seen anyone really touch on that topic too deeply, so a whole video on what do do when you hate your own drawings sounds interesting (and helpful!) c:

I don't know ifd this is what you were going for Mark, but this reminds me of the style that 'Tangled' (just watched the movie with my daughter) is done in. Β She's adorable.

Just checked my Youtube notifications: *See's your video. Watches your video*
Then checks my DA notifications: *See's your drawing that was just in the video*

What a small world this is!

Oh WOW! She's adorable!!
Yes, definitely been there.
Especially lately.
I've had one too many I didn't like of my own drawings.
I repainted a face 4 times in one week. Ugg!
Β 
Thank you for the video it helped.
I have done most of those things, taken a break, pushing through and repainting a lot.
Personally, I repaint if I can or toss it aside, because I personally found that I end up holding it the back of head as a "fail."
It helps to let it go.
Throw it in the waste basket and yell score!Β  Β 
It is mostly that you have to remember to have fun and NEVER give up, because you started because you loved doing it, that hasn't change.
Sometimes we go through "tough" times.
Its hard sometimes, but you do come out of those "block" points...
And seeing your video and the other fellow artists go through this too helps a lot.

Sooo beautiful! I would have put her some pointy ears though, she looks like a forest spirit or an elf.
