My Lion King Forum

EDIT1: i might be doing a lot of vent art because you know why -.-
leave? I feel like my art isn't worth submitting here anymore. I feel like I've gotten worse or that just can't improve at all.
My life has turned upside down I feel like I'm the one left alone in the dark. My dad now has to have an oxygen tank for the rest of his life. Nice...... very nice. I'm probably not going to be on here for a while. I just feel like giving up my dreams. Like I said, I just feel like I'm the one left alone in the dark..

Please....please don't go! you're a great artist! You haven't gotten worse, it's all in your head. Listen, I have an uncle who could die any second. For the last couple of years he's been off and on. One moment he's fine and the next he looks horrific and feels worse than he looks. And I had a cousin, which is my uncles daughter. My mom, her and my mom's nephew are all so close in age, they grew up more and a bro and sis relationship more than nice and nephew to my mom. She died a few years back, she had two kids. a daughter who was 15 an a son who was 12. Here cancer was really bad, literally the fluids in her body would shift to her legs so the top of her looked drained and her legs looked puffy. When she died she wanted them to go on with what they want to do. Now I've never met your dad but I can take a pretty good guess that he wouldn't want you to give up on your dream because of him. I knew if I was your father, that would devastate me if I knew you gave up your dream because of me. And you know what? My cousin's,her kids, would say that the pain is still their but they are willing to go on doing what they love for her. I can't change your mind if you do give up, but you seem to really love your dad. And I know he must love you with all his heart, so I'm sure he wouldn't want you to stop doing what you love only for him. Plus, this site would lose an amazing artist.

NO
NO
NONONONONONONONONONONOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I agree with Master 100%. Nobody should give up on something they love doing and what other love to see by loved ones.

Know too well about the art issues. Having something like that happen to anyone is a jab in the chest. I do think vent art is good solution. I do think your're improving. You just need believe you are improving. Try different styles, experiment around, just doodle and see what pops onto your paper! Hakuna Matata.

Frankly, my family has been doing a lot of fighting and such lately. I personally like to draw positive mood pictures. I makes me feel better about my family, myself, and anyone who is willing to look at it. If it means your art slows down for sometime. You should let it. Say a week or so. Then try drawing again. You're bound to get a fabulous image out it. And I'm certain drawing a pic specifically for your dad. Show him how much you love him and will be there for him through your art.
It will lift up any parent.
Dear Jesus, our heavenly father, I pray for Marz's father and for her. Let your love and great power heal them. Let them live without medicle problems. Give them peace and happiness. And allow them with grace through you.
In Jesus's name, Amen.

please marceline!!!! don't go, you're a best friend and best artist

it's okay I won't leave. And yeah, I guess it's all in my head. And I'm so sorry about your uncle. And yeah, it's that I can't stand seeing my dad looking the way he looks. Also, I'm having like a terrible artblock. I know my dad wants the best for me, but I can't because I have such a hard time drawing. I have tons of other drawing including requests(your commissions) and when I finish the sketch, I just lose my motivation and I can't go on for a couple more days. I guess I'm just lascking a lot of motivation for art too. Thanks for the lovely comment though<3 I really appreciate it.

it's okay, I'm not going to leave for ever. i'm probably just not going to be here as often as I was before.

yeah, I guess I'm just thinking about my dad way too much. Also have a huge artblock, which gets me frustrated easily.
And thanks for the little prayer <3 I really appreciate it

aww, it's okay. I'm not leaving forever, I'm probably am just going to be not as often here as I used to be.
And you are a really good friend too, thank you <3

You're welcome! Glad you're staying. I wish you and your family all the best! Love ya!
