I've had that happen in a span of a month. But that happened because I had the luck of being infatuated with drawing when I first started learning the fundamentals properly. Spending tireless hours daily learning and afterwards even more hours just making doodles and trying to apply what I've learned with what I really wanted to draw.(anime lol) Just keep at it, even if it doesn't happen within a month. It will happen eventually

I think it is helpful to step outside yourself to criticize your work. Pretend it was done by someone else and think of what you would tell them. You are less likely to say hateful things about it because you don't want to hurt their feelings. And don't worry about patronizing yourself. The most fawning comments and the most hateful are two ends of a spectrum that are rarely true. The truth is somewhere in the middle. If you try to keep your comments "clinical," then they are likely to be the most useful without wrecking your self esteem.

@gnarthdarkanen74647 жыл бұрын
I think a lot of us (yeah, I still screw it up too) have some trouble with defining a "critique" as opposed to just being critical... Being critical, can be useful in small doses... However, it's focus being on the "mistakes" or technical "mis-steps" is too close to just drawing an over-all negative conclusion to the work. On the other hand, a critique, is a proper list of suggestions and solutions to the "troubles" or "tribulations" you might have within the piece. Instead of "this shadow is all wonky" take a step back and look again. You need to answer "why is it wonky?" and "What would make it less wonky?" to have a critique for that particular shadow. In art, we're working on expression. We (artists) have a message to express in the work we do. Every piece should say something. It's not likely that every project you commit to or finish is going to have some earth-shaking and masterful message to the masses, but every piece should say something... anything. As the artist, when you're at certain junctures in your work, you should be able to step away a few minutes to clear your head, and then return to critique the piece at that stage. Is it saying what you wish to say? How is it saying that? What might be the better way to push that point, or better create your intended narrative... etc.? Answering questions that way, and remembering to build solutions, as opposed to just finding problems with something, is how we get to be better artists. Critiquing should never be a negative, but a part of the cultivation process within you toward generating your own techniques and advancing your own style... And growing as an artist... Being critical is only a part of that... On it's own... It's more negative and useless than just doing the art for the sake of doing the art. :o)

4:33 - 4:40 Holy shit I’ve heard people say “You just have to think ‘who cares if it’s bad’ just keep trying and you’ll improve” I think why that never helped is because the goal would then become “Make something that you know isn’t going to end up like how you want it, and just hope you get better in the future”, when all along I should have had the goal be, “Make art because you want to express yourself, it might not be perfect, but the fact you expressed yourself in the first place is fantastic , self improvement will come the more the express yourself without restraint.”

So I cried a lot to this. This is me. You're in my head.This is sooo surreal. I know I have crippled myself from my own progression by my own self-hatred and in doing so- making the act of creating art painful- so I continue to not progress. It's so cyclic. I wish there was a way to learn how to get out of this mindset. Holy shit, my mind is still blown.
@SamReevesWrites7 жыл бұрын
I mentioned this to another viewer, but the truth is that when a person is in this self-punishing state, it is a result of the fight-or-flight response. It's like a panic attack. When it happens, the person's perception narrows and hyper-focuses on the negative. What works for me is to remind myself that this is an automatic response of the brain. It is temporary and largely disillusionment. When the self-loathing has passed and we can think rationally, more options open up to us and passion returns.

I am exactly the same. It's stunning how accurate this video is about how I feel and what my problem with drawing is. At this point, I'm crippled, with no shred of exaggeration. The moment I so much as *think* about drawing, I start sweating, my hands are shaking and I can't bear the anxiety. My last attempt at making a sketch lasted 2 minutes, before I couldn't take it anymore. I don't know what to do. I've been fighting this problem for years now, and I just can't win. I got more than enough money and resources, but there just isn't a solution I could pay for to fix my head and fulfill the dream. Therapists don't help. The helplessness is killing me.

When I was younger I used to hate my art. I would start drawing for a bit, but whenever I saw that I didn't improve after 2 weeks, I'd give up. I felt like I would never improve, and that I should give up. I would look at better artists, and just tear myself down.I think what helped, is that I looked back at my really old art to newer art. I saw that I did improve, even compared to newer works. I now, know how to be healthy about critique, and when I do see mistakes, I practice. For example, I have some trouble with proportion so I do a study on it. If you feel like your art sucks, look upon the mistakes as a challenge to get better. If you keep trying, you are bound to improve. I hope telling my story will help younger artists. I know how it feels to hate what I love, and want others to realize that art takes time. You will get there eventually. Just keep drawing :)

Thanks again for the beautiful advice! I love to make music, but I had a ton of bad experiences related with this problem. I used to have extremely negative thoughts in my head, thinking that music was the worst thing that could ever happened to me, feeling sorry for my parents for wasting so much money on helping me on something I'm not even good at, and many other feelings me that used to make me want to give up. I could even make fun of myself with everyone to take the situation with humor. Most of this things haven't helped me at all. Things that actually helped me was feedback from different people (not just my friends, because...you know), re-listening to my music to see what I don't like about it, and taking in consideration what am I going to do next time to avoid those mistakes (instead to instantly being a dick to myself), and being happy with my progress. Maybe I haven't made a "good" or perfect track yet, but I realize that I keep getting better while comparing my oldest music with my newest one. It's a tough journey, but sometimes I don't realize that I never had stop learning.

When you stumble at an obstacle and drawing becomes difficult and you feel like you are not making it work - that's when you actually start noticing things that are wrong. That's when you see the mistakes and what is "off" in your drawings. THAT is the point when you ARE moving forward and getting better. You just need to not stop when it happens. Take a step back, analyze and then keep improving. Frustration may linger but it is short-lived compred to the massive improvements you are about to make. So do not give up. Every step you push on, when you feel like your own art is trash - is a giant leap in the direction of becoming a master. You just need to not give up. Become that resilliant bastard that just refuses to back down and keep making art.

Yeah I used to Self-hate my art because it didnt look like my idols art or other things. But i realize despite my drawings flaws, I created something and its better then it was years ago. Why do I want to copy someone and not be an individual? I now know I love art and cartoons because of all different viewpoints of life. Something to laugh at or cry at. Yeah, you can have inspiration but never copy. I also know that sometimes your idols may suffer from the same. But another thing about self-hate, it hurts people around you. When you tell someone "your art is bad", It makes the person unsure and uncomfortable. Which helps nobody, know you will improve always. Thanks for reading :-)

I absolutely hate my drawings of people. They suck. But on the other hand I'm generally pretty happy and proud of my lead pencil landscape sketches, so whenever I'm feeling particularly frustrated with drawing, I find a picture of scenery I like, and loosely copy it (as in, I don't fuss about getting every stick in every tree and every fence and everything in its exact spot and shape and motion etc) and that normally makes me pretty happy again. There's something calming about just creating a giant grassy hill in the foreground with lots of tiny little strokes. I mean, I also experiment with doodles in the back of my school diary often, to see what I can do and work out techniques for drawing things I couldn't draw before that yielded results I liked.

I've been too harsh on myself during my formative years while instead I should have been more caring of myself. I wasn't even there for me when I needed myself the most. Eventually, I felt gutted every single time I didn't know how to draw what I wanted to draw. But things right now are different now. I've realized a lot of things, learning to remain patience with my progress positively.

Me and a friend of mine in real life recieve "critiques" in the form of insults from my ex boyfriend, with me, he said "your art is shit." and with her, he took a quote from Zoidberg from Futurama going, "Your art is bad and you should feel bad." With what he said, I've felt like those things echoed in my head over and over and over again. Five years have passed from there and I guess like the masochist that I am, those words come back to let me know that I need to be humble and not think I'm the "best artist ever" (I didn't before I received that "critique" but it hurts) and try to motivate myself even though this person that said those things will never think I'm good and will think everything I touch is garbage. I know, it's stupid to let him affect me like he did with my art work and drawings but I do. That guy made it hard to tell the difference between a critique and an ad hominem attack.

@SamReevesWrites7 жыл бұрын
I did the same thing with painting and writing. And, in a way, it might not be a bad thing. Use the switch-off as a way to recharge your batteries. No matter how long it takes. When you come back to the first one, usually you will see it with new passion. Things that were hard seem simple. Eventually, the switch-off will happen again as that passion ebbs. If so, okay, switch without regret. The secondary activity might even replace the primary activity. If so, that waffling is usually due to an internal conflict and fear of giving up something you don't really enjoy but have invested a lot of hours into. But, also be aware of using it just as procrastination, as you mentioned. If that's the case, just tell yourself, "I am going to start a drawing/painting/whatever." Then, take the first step in doing that. If that means getting out your art supplies or launching Photoshop or whatever. More often than not, you will find yourself wanting to go farther than that first step.

Thank you for this!! While watching the video I didn't only think about art but also other hobbies that I do like creative writing and me in general, so that's pretty cool. Also, 500th comment haha xd

I never thought about there being a difference between self-hatred and self-criticism. Thank you. Stepping outside yourself and looking at your painting as if someone else painted it, then thinking of what advice you would give that person. That's incredibly valuable.

I fell like this video came straight out of my head. In the minute 0:44 he says EXACTLY what I am thinking now. I hate my art so much that I feel stressed and depressed everytime I try to draw.

i go to art&design school. i used to think and feel like i can draw better than anyone else in my circle. but then after entering the art&design school i feel intimidated. i feel like i'm not good enough to be here, and i started to hate myself because my friends are so cool and i'm not as cool as them. this video is so relatable and gives me a new perspective also boost my confidence. thank you so much.

This video hit pretty close to home for me. I used to draw all the time back in High School. My drawings always turned out flat looking and perspective was a real challenge for me. I ended up hating everything I drew and I haven't really drawn in a decade now. Lately I've been having a bit of an urge to pick up my pencils again but it's been so long that I don't even know where to begin; I haven't really had any good ideas for images that I want to actually put to paper, and I don't know where I want to pick up again in terms of technique. But yeah, tl;dr: Don't give up drawing.

This! This 1,000 times! I only just recently got over my slump as a comic artist and started draw/writing again. Even now, I fear the same problems will arise and I'll revisit terrible mistakes of my last project [mainly not finishing or lazy ruts]. Thanks for this vid.

Have you made a video on _how_ to properly self-criticize? Saying to look for ways to improve is easier said than done. I see my mistakes in an artwork, but I dont know how to fix them, how to change them.
@MattiasPilhede7 жыл бұрын
I think if you are unable to see how to fix your mistakes you have more learning to do and need to look for criticism from others.
@CelestialDraconis7 жыл бұрын
Yeah, thats my problem. I don't tend to show my work with others until I feel it's done and perfect.
@DeadKraken7 жыл бұрын
I suggest you to force yourself to show your stuff to others. If you're a perfectionist, you will never feel that any single piece of work you made it's "done and perfect", it's impossible. So you might as well show them as they are, especially if you have the chance to show them to a professional or a person with much more experience(even a fellow artist is ok).

I feel like art is like learning to ride a bicycle ( with much longer time frames ). Progress isn't linear, but discontinuous. Things don't improve, but then they click and you go up a level.

oh boy i hate myself so much. but i cant stop even if i want to. you are right, people who hate themself literarely stop to do anything, they end up lying depressd the whole day in the bed or starring at the screen for days without doing anything, even trying to force yourself to play videogames becomes hard.

When I start feeling like I'm not getting anywhere with practicing art, I go back and redraw an old drawing I made several months or years ago. It always brings back my motivation since I can see that I did make progress. So, yeah keep your old art, it can be really helpful later on.

That is a fantastic idea. It would so very clearly highlight how an artist's skills have improved.

I’ve gone down such a hole that I haven’t finished anything in over a year. I feel so empty, and everything I draw I hate. I no longer have the talent I used to and I feel like I might as well give up.
