Stuck on a Limb

Hello, everyone, I think it's about time that I made another journal. 

As of late, my passion for drawing and for writing has been dwindling considerably.  What I am saying is that when I do try to draw I take a frequent breaks before giving up altogether.  I think the main reason is:  I'm losing my passion for art.   

Second, I know what my problem is with writing however how well or how quickly I write something down depends solely on my mood.  

When you are an artist of both trades, naturally what you draw is going to gain more attention than what you pen down.  To put it simply, it is much easier for a person to look at something and study it than to actually read what the writer has to say. Unless it involves characters from a really popular television program only THEN does the author's work gets attention.

Not putting anyone down or one the spot but it's equally frustrating when you're friends with someone that is much more skilled in areas in art that you lack and receives a lot more attention.  Yes, I know this sounds whiny but I think it's true for those that resort to using traditional art.  Traditional art is what we're good at and we feel comfortable drawing with a pencil than trying to mess around with a Tablet.  Computers and other great products of technology are a hassle, lets all face it! XD
  
I'm half tempted to say this out of spite but I'll say it anyway.  "Don't ever become friends with a person who is better in art than you."   Yeah, really spiteful on my part but that's how we all feel at times.  Right?

Right.

Teenagers...why must you all be so much better at art than we older folks are?! XD


I better close this journal before I write something down that will really make people angry.


Have a good day.
