Today I took an old doodle from maybe 7 years ago and redrew it! :V The first is the original, and the second is the new and improved version! It was a lot of fun to draw something to suit my aesthetics back then. I was crazy about black and stripes and anything emo and goth ;v; (I never outgrew that tbh) So I tried to toss some aspects my old self would really enjoy ;v; )/

Just a little message to artists out there: Please don’t put your past art down. I understand being self-conscious about it. A lot you could say is cringe-worthy, probably.
But the past of our artistic journeys is very important. Without it, you wouldn’t be where you are at all. Please don’t hate on your past self. And don’t deprecate your art right now either. Encourage each other, even if you can’t do it yourself. Art is a beautiful thing, and if you’re pursuing it, you’re already doing an awesome job <3
