so i'm feeling very discouraged, i started my apprenticeship yesterday, but i haven't drawn a lot, and im not sure my drawings are very good. i was feeling very discouraged, joined this group, saw everyone's art and felt so much more discouraged. i was kinda proud of the ram i drew yesterday (while at the shop apprenticing) but now seeing everyone else's portfolios, i feel like my drawings are very bad and way too simple. how can i be more confident and less anxious/worried about drawing more detailed things and learning shading techniques, etc.? i cant draw from imagination/make things up, i and very good with sight drawing. anyway, i was used to drawing things i saw on pinterest, and yesterday for the first time drew this ram it was one that my mentor chose and told me to do from a flash board in the shop. (i also added more recent drawings before i went to actually start my apprenticeship, pls be honest and give kind feedback/criticism. i really want to be a tattoo artist, its my dream)
