"You're so bad at this. This is awful. These look like children's drawings. You're no real artist. You will never become good at this."

"Shut up. I'm drawing here."

Don't worry, Stephan! We're all our own worst critics :)

@leafthief It was my inner voice. It is still saying these things sometimes, but I'm getting better at blocking it out.

@aromoma Thanks for the encouragement. :)

that sounds like the voice in my head when I draw some times. Don't give in! Don't let your inner critic destroy the creativity you have. Drawing is like working a muscle: the more you do it, the better you get!

What kind of douchebag would say that?
I don't think these look like "children's drawings".

Keep at it! Keep it up!

Sidenote: Pausing my Daily Art at the moment. Too much work, not enough discipline. And somehow, after three years, I felt like I needed a pause. Have some days in my life where I didn't have to think about that one image I still have to do.

I don't know where this is going. Maybe nowhere.

Repainting some elements on the world map.
