I could kinda draw. I actually went to college for it for a year but then I fell on some pretty dark times in my life.
This is... probably 2-3 years old. I haven't drawn since then. I have painted some, but... I don't know. I can't draw anymore. I do resin and clay work now. Even when I did draw it was all from references (this one was a WoW screenshot) and during college I realized what a talentless hack I really was.
I want to go back to college someday but... it's not going to be for art anymore. Fibers if anything art related. I would probably do better in business courses.
Vent post? Not really... soul searching maybe.

Yeah that seems to be about how any craft goes... I have a business person's spirit though, if I invest a bunch of money in something I'll sell at least enough stuff to get my money back in supplies. ;3 I probably won't be looking into this seriously for awhile but... my Dad made a leather wallet for his Dad when he was in boy scouts and his Dad carried it until the day he died. He said something about how he'd like a wallet like that so I've been looking into it.
All I've ever been able to draw is from an example pictoral or someone else's work... and when I draw that it's almost like copying it into pencil (or marker in this case). I can't draw things from my head... make anything original... my anatomy is always terrible. Even when I did draw I had no "style". Nothing had a look to it that related to any of my other work.
My drawing professor looked at my gallery at the end of the semester and said it was almost like different facets of my personality.
I'm just... bad at it.

Well that's how everyone starts out. Drawing from examples and existing subjects to perfect their techniques.
Maybe you're just being too hard on yourself.
But it's up to you what you decide to specialise in though, I'm not trying to persuade you to go back to it or anything.
And I like the little resin sculptures you make too. They cute!

YOU ARE NOT A TALENT-LESS HACK. You're wonderful and you do great work! Art and otherwise. Just because jerks tell you that you can't doesn't mean there is ANY truth to it whatsoever.
You're gifted, ma'am. And that's that.
I know you and I know you can draw, paint, sketch, create, mold, and do whatever you simply put that brilliant mind to.
And, fyi, you're B-E-A-UUUUUUTIFUL <3
Years of thinking otherwise will lead to you not accepting that, but it's okay. I'll tell you all the time. ^.~
Wipe off the dust of years past and get back in that saddle, dollface. You are worth much more than you realize- yourself and your artwork.
~~~Much love~~~~
