- QuestionCould I make it less detailed, or would that make it look weird?Community AnswerYou can do whatever you please with your art. "Weird" is just an opinion. For example, some people may find hyper-realistic weird, and cartoon art normal. Your art, your choice!
- QuestionI don’t feel like I’m good enough to chase after my dream (being an artist) because in terrible at drawing, should I think so badly in this situation?Baguette WomanCommunity AnswerRemember no one is born Bob Ross! It takes years of practice and lots of mistakes to become really good! If you think you are not good at drawing, you can still become an artist! Maybe try digital art, ceramics, painting, watercolors or glass fusion. If you don't practice, you cannot be as good as the people who do. Remember, we are our own worst critics, so don't give up!
