How do I put in the effort to make art without technically being good at drawing and such? I'm making progress with drawing and studying books and things, but I'm too old to not have a body of work, whether it's shit or not. I like being able to look back at the work I've done and see that I have grown and am better at art than I was back then. However I'm so worked up over making shit art that I simply don't make anything at all. I want this to go, I want to be able to pick up a pencil and be brave enough to make crappy shit
You dont even need to draw to be an amazing artist of art.
You can use clay, photogtaphs, film, wood, collage i dont care as long as you are creative.
Dont look at the things you can't do, look at the things you can and dont be a sad sack of shit because you cant move a pencil as well as others.

The key to getting over making bad art is to not think, just go and draw. You have to stop thinking honestly. I think everyone feels this way a lot of the time, but if you put more time into drawing and being ok with making stuff that won't be good at first, then you're on the right track to actually getting good.
If you get hung up on not wanting to make bad drawings that it cripples you from actually drawing, then I promise you you will never make any improvements.
Just draw, simple as that.

This is literally why most people fail. You have to be willing to make shit for a sold 2-5 years.
All the time you spend complaining about it, wishing you were better, you could be drawing more shit.
>I'm too old to not have a body of work
No your not. You don't deserve to have a body of work... you haven't actually done the work.

There is no way you're ever going to make it. This is the worst, most entitled attitude I've ever seen in a wannabe drawer.
