Portfolio update’s making me feel negative
I just finished the flash sheet on the right, and I’m proud of “some” of the work I did. I love the fetal skulls the most, but the page itself for some reason doesn’t feel like it looks as good as I hoped.
I probably have some issues, but immediately after putting the flash into my portfolio and taking a step back to look at my work. I got this feeling that it just sucks, and my work sucks, and I’m getting discouraged with building and drawing more, but I don’t know why.
Did anyone else get like this while building their portfolio??? Or with drawing in general for tattoos?
If any one of you did, how did you get through it and get more confidence in your work?
I’ll keep going, but I’m worried that I won’t get accepted into an apprenticeship and I’m doing all of this for nothing.
I want to stop this feeling as soon as I can because now I dread drawing the next flash I have planned.
Anything helps :( I honestly feel as if I have dysmorphia when it comes to my work.
