Now I have absolutely no desire to draw, because I will never be able to paint an equally cool as you
Well that was
seriously depressing shit (pardon my french) to read, as i remember same 18 years back my friends saying the same when we were drawing together.
Look, i started with drawing stick figures. It eventually evolves into something more spesific, you add details etc. Then you seek out some cool artist, wish to draw like him/her. DONT GET DEPRESSED about the fact there seems to be huge gap between his/her and your skills.
Copy his style a bit. Then copy another artist. Eventually your drawing is natural without copying. Draw. Draw more. Doodle at work/school. At this point I can draw pretty much anything i want with various styles, and the best thing is i think i evolve even now as i draw (looking back older caricatures and newer ones!)
Most important thing is having fun every second. I have enjoyed planning,sketching and colouring every single work i have done in my life this far.
