If you feel like your art is bad or people would hate your drawings. Think for a second: everyone start sucking at art.

Nobody draws great in their first time. Even the best artist you know, probably had the same problems that you have now with colors or shading.

One of my first pixel parts was this

It's ready bad. Like, really bad. At the moment it was a blast and really fun to do. I just keep drawing and experimenting. And now I can do some draws like this

It still a wip, but you can say I definitely get better. Sure, it's far from high level, but... It doesn't feel good getting better at something?

Try to search for tutorials, experiment with color palettes and art styles. Try to keep a habit of drawing every day or two days. Just enjoy the ride and you will improve more and more with the time.

And that person who laughs at your art, they need to remember that they also was in that position. Try to help the new artist to improve. Because that kid who makes draws in mobile or with stickmans, in the future maybe could do really nice animations or illustrations.

Remember there's good people in Newgrounds who will cheer you in the end. Because this place is for making the art YOU want to do. As long it doesn't hurt anybody, you can make the art you most like. Remember

Everything for everyone

I hope you keep making art. Because you have the potential to make something amazing. And as long you put all your effort, it's good, even if it's bad (if that makes sense?)

Always try to improve, you can do it ♡
