My biggest problem is probably having way too many ideas for drawings but when you try making it, it ends up nothing like you wanted it to be.

[mikantsumiki]

Does any one else have the problem where they think up a wonderful picture but can't describe or draw it correctly and are upset because they can't show people their thought of the art they want

*when you draw the lineart in the same layer as the sketch*

[fckng_cwn]

"Take care of yourself"

*Me, having not moved for the past four hours, hunched over my sketchbook with torn out pages and Sundrop cans scattered around me at **1:37** in the morning*
It's all about self care.

Perfectionism. YES! I gave that up when I moved to watercolor from digital and embracing the mistakes is so nice!

[beepboop]

whenever i draw, i imagine something so crisp, clean, and beautiful in my head, and when it doesnt turn out like that, i completely lose my motivations and dont draw for days. it sucks :(

You know what I hate the most....





When one eye doesn't match the other

[riceandstew]

1. Drawing dirty things when your not even dirty minded
2. Eating while drawing on paper...
3. drawing weird and embarrassing things in the margins of your school notebooks (we all do that, right?)
4. Drawing do much that you get grounded for not turning in yo math homework
5. NOT GETTING ENOUGH SLEEP FROM DRAWING LATE AT NIGHT

I have a very unique drawing style called "I Tried"

[TopazEeVeE]

"bad posture" I feel called out

[emid]

"Don't burn yourself out and try not to draw so much to hurt yourself. Remember to stand up and take stretches. It can be really harmful to yourself if your leaning over all the time." *me realizing I do all of these*

[pikapower_kirby]

My biggest slip-up? Staying in my comfort zone. I've currently got an anime-type style I'm pretty happy with, but I can't draw guys to save my life. They all look too feminine. This is why art tutorials exist. Hopefully I can learn some new stuff!

[HilariouslyScary]

*tells us not to draw the same things*
*immediately tells us not to draw a bunch of different things*
me: *sweats nervously*

[daysAJ]

I just tried to draw on paper with a tablet pen.... are you proud of me, mom?

[Sharktwoth]

Despite my last comment, don't do what I used to do. If you draw something that you think looks bad, _Do_ . *Not* . *_Rip it out_* . Keep it, keep everything. When you look back years later, it'll be nice to see your progress

[gravity-gamer]

The thing that bothers me the most when I'm drawing is when the paper crumples or bends when I'm erasing or trying to do other things and is is so annoying

[enabledtime]

I hate it when I have this perfect drawing in my head, but then when I try to draw it I realize I can't and give up because I'm afraid it's going to look a lot worse than it did in my head 😥

I had the problem of disliking my art, but then I took some advise from a friend: "Take that inner perfectionist who's holding you back and PUNCH 'EM IN THE FACE"

[robynnhoud]

Here are my problems:

•I somewhat struggle with a bit of same face syndrome. I'm getting better at dealing with it, but it's still a small problem for me.
•My anatomy (especially for dudes) is extremely boring. There's little to no variety in body shapes.
• I'm not getting out of my comfort zone. I recently got my first drawing tablet, and I've barely used it.
• I stay up WAY too late at night working on art (especially on school nights).
• My art never looks how I want it to.
• I am way too harsh on my art, especially my old art.

These are just a few of my problems, so yeah. I got a long way to go.

[xlunip]

My three biggest problems in art is:
I can't draw backgrounds.
And I only draw in one angle.
And I don't do poses.

I have alot of trouble on those.
