I haven't answered this until now because I was battling with my inner self hatred as to whether or not you were being sincere. I thought:"How could someone as talented as her say something like that to me?!". I will admit that I still have a little trouble fully accepting the implied compliment, but I've finally accepted that you simply wouldn't have written what you wrote if you didn't mean it. So thank you. :)

Yeah, I make mountains out of molehills... a lot. Sigh.

Kate, Kate, Kate! I think your work is stupendous! It fills me with glee and joyfulness when I see it! Your drawings are so solid and rounded and three-dimensional, and your colors are so smooth and pleasing. In short, you have got skills!

But I know what you mean, I have trouble accepting that other talented people can find my work appealing at all. It must be an artist-low-self-esteem thing? I think we look at the things that other people do, which we ourselves do not or cannot do, and we think, "Well, crap. I'm not as good as them." But that means we're discounting the good things that we ourselves do. Which is silly, but hard to stop.

Or something?

Nah, that makes perfect sense! A habit most likely developed when we started drawing and were struggling to achieve the basics. Food for thought you have given me! Ah crap, now I'm hungry.

"In short, you have got skills!" Strange how this gets through to me more then the wonderful things you said just before it. I can deny having solid, rounded and pleasantly smooth colouring, but I can't deny that I have skills, ya know? Like... I have skills, but I'm just not supper happy about what level I'm at. But that only leaves more room to learn and doesn't mean that my stuff is shit.

Sorry for dragging you through my psychological jello. I love your work and I really appreciate what you've taken the time to write. You so cool! :hug:

Man, from the outside this must seem so silly. Two artists being all: "You're awesome." "No, YOU'RE awesome." :D

I am saving this comment forever, because it fills me with glee! :love:

And what you said totally makes sense; I feel the same way. I guess that's part of always striving to improve, is looking at your level now and going, "Gluh ugh argh blech!" (Or, if you're not a caveman, "This sucks!" Lol) Plus we're always our own worst critics, right?

P.S. No, YOU'RE awesome!

This is so much work, girl! But you did a great job. This pics are very lively and fun. I especially like the one where she's reading a book.

Thanks bunches! I tried some new stuff with the coloring, which *mostly* worked out okay. Still learning! :D
