I guess I never really considered myself an artist or anything, my drawings are always more of doodles than full blown pictures because with pictures you get the whole scene you get the... well picture but for me its never complete I'm not just not that talented or I dont think that way which ever way you want to look at it.  I wish I was good to prove to myself before anyone else that I'm good at something that I have some sort of talent, but I just never see it... Idk I guess I'm just having a really pity party but it would just be so great to feel good at something, art being one of the most important, I have been doing it since i was a small child first with clothes and weird random stuff that kids draw then clothes more aggressively though i was never any good at that age it didnt matter i felt good then eventually i fell off with clothes and just got real discouraged idk what was the kicker maybe the realization that i sucked lol idk but for whatever reason i never looked at anything I've ever done the same.. My biggest problem i feel is my lack of creativity i cant just think of something and draw it, but its all i want to do i can have an imagine in my head even if its something ive seen a thousand times over but when i try to get it on paper it just never turns out right its like i cant see the lines it all just turns into a mess and again i fall into discouragement so idk where else to turn people around me say that im good and i guess i can agree that im better than some but that can be summed to more practice than they got or something idk i dont even know where im going with this i just feel stagnant i want to be good at something i want to go somewhere i want people to see my stuff and be like i see her.. I want to take classes and get better or just magically get better idk but i just feel dead in the water..

You must learn to draw from feeling, not by thought. Art is a pure form of expression, that can not be described through linear ideas. The most important thing you have as an artist is your own unique style, and the only way to find that is to completely blank your mind and listen to your body as you draw.

Also, you're never going to feel satisfied with your art if you constantly compare your style to other people with completely different drawing process.
