    Walt never cared much about money except as a means to do all the projects he wanted to do, and he had a LOT of projects he wanted to do. He accomplished pretty much ALL of them. I've noticed that if, while working, I think for a second, "I wonder if this will sell or make money" my line work falls apart. While working I need to focus on the artwork, period, nothing else.

    How long does it take for most people to learn how to draw a line? I’ve been seriously studying art for a decade now and spent seven of those years as a daily artist until it became dangerous for my mental health, and I still can’t do this. I honestly can’t _trace_ lines or curves without most of them going in the complete wrong direction or crossing each other, and none of them are very ‘correct.’ I have no ability to go a step further and copy curves or shapes for the same reason. They literally curve the wrong way, with the wrong depth, and the wrong size, or I just end up with a _completely_ different shape than it’s supposed to be. I would trace the same exact shapes and followed the same exact simple line tutorials for 30, 45, 60 days in a row and just never improved. I get a drastically different, equally wrong result every time, but I always _feels_ like my arm is following the line or curve I see. In one of my last classes on the fundamentals, the instructor asked me if I’m legally blind, and then accused me of not paying attention or doing the homework exercises. In reality, I was going home and spending so many hours on them I became a basket case and stopped being able to hold food down. I just don’t understand how people are getting to this point-the lines, the dots, the curves. It gets completely beyond me by the time you hit the ellipses. This doesn’t feel normal. A decade of nothing but regression? Is it really true that anyone can learn?

    I have been drawing for 35 years or so, and I don't know why I do this anymore. I have a pretty large following on instagram. It used to mean something to me. Now, I have no art direction, no art motivation, and I really don't enjoy doing it anymore. Drawing stresses me out. The problem is, I can't stop drawing.
