Passion


how absolutely true.

For the past few days or so I have been focusing on my illustrations. My main interest is fashion illustration but I find it quite difficult sometimes. Hair is an absolute horror to draw not to mention the clothes. Eeeep!

If you take a look at my portfolio, my current drawings are much better and very different now. I hope to perfect them before putting them up. My past illustrations are weak and very amateurish. 

I am my biggest critic. 

I have met so many other artists recently who tell me that they are never truly happy with their work. They always feel they can do better. That makes me feel so much better knowing that I am not alone in this.

My question to you is what is your passion?

  2. You are a very talented gal! Don't forget it;) I'm actually yet to discover my passion. I hope it will be design as I start my studies on Monday. My biggest fear is that I won't be able to draw well enough to represent my ideas. Eeeeep!
