Here's a J.R.R. Tolkien drawing I'm currently struggling with. If the non-SW posts get too annoying just let me know.

It's the same old problem. I'm cursed to see nothing but flaws. I can enjoy the heck out of other people's work, but my own stuff really bothers me. Especially when it tries to borrow money or wrecks my car. Does your artwork do that or is it just me? Maybe I just look like a pushover. Or a lunatic. It's definitely one of those.

I'm cursed to see nothing but flaws.
I am so a part of that club too. We should have a secret handshake or something.
My artwork has never wrecked a car, but it has angered me enough to want to wreck my car. tee-hee....j/k
But, you know, I think it's just an artistic trait. When the flaws in my work become all I can see, I think back to my favortie painter, Michelangelo, and remember how he felt about his paintings on the Sistine Chapel ceiling. What is today considered as his painting 'masterpiece' is what he considerd to be horrid. I even have the following quote of his that talks about how he felt about his Sistine Chapel paintings written on a piece of paper and pinned to my wall:
...Try
To succour my dead pictures and my fame;
Since foul I fare and painting is my shame.
-Michelangelo
If even he thought his work was bad, when it clearly was not, then maybe our perspective on our own work can be skewed too. You know?
In all seriousness, your talent is undeniable. Take pride in the fact that other people enjoy it.

I'ts so obvious why you're the manager of this forum, Dawn. Your insight and support are beyond mere words like astounding or amazing. Your words have meant a great deal to me. People say things like that all the time, but I do mean it. To everyone who has leant criticism or kindness I want to say thank you. It's good to be noticed by like-minded people.

Just trying to be supportive.
Thanks for the kind words, but I'm not a manager anymore...long story.
And, yeah, it's always nice to be recognized by like minded people. That's one of the reasons I enjoy this forum so much.
Hope your Tolkein portrait is behaving.

I finished the portrait from hell. I'm calling it finished because I dont want to look at it anymore. If it's in a drawer, under a lot of stuff, it must be finished, right? That seems to be where a lot of my 'finished' art goes. I find that if I walk away from them for eight or nine years they eventually start to look good to me. Then I wonder who did them. Manager or no, you are a valuable resource to this forum and specifically to me, Dawn. You're every bit the artist, and I always enjoy your posts.

I've done that too!
I look back on stuff I did in college and wonder if it was really me who pulled that stuff off. It's a crazy thing.
Thanks for the nice words too. I appreciate them.
I think your Tolkein portrait deserves to be out in the light though. It's totally display worthy.
