Art is my life. That and music. They're not just a hobby anymore and apparently, some people have taken notice of this. I don't think that I am all that great but I do know that I have improved and that I enjoy it greatly. I also am quite aware that I am by no means even close to the best artists out there. But the fact remains the same. It is what my soul is. 

But, it's gotten me thinking recently. About a lot of things to do with art and my life in general but one event seems to stick out...I remember when I first started to really get into drawing and why I did. It was because someone that was important to me at the time said that I couldn't do it very well. So, instead of crying or giving up, I put all of my energy into it. I did not give up and my stubbornness refused to let them have that say in things. He changed my life by his negativity, because of his pessimistic outlook on something that made me happy. At first, I was heartbroken and thought that he may had been right. But pride is a funny thing and mine is rather persistent. Now, no one can tell me that I can't do something that I want to. 

Don't EVER let anyone tell you that you can't do something or that you're not good enough. They're usually wrong and they're usually an asshole...
