You have to make mistakes to find out who you aren’t. You take the action, and the insight follows: You don’t think your way into becoming yourself.

It’s Odd
It’s odd that I find myself drawing more now than I did when I was at any type of school.
I hated high school, my art teacher made drawing seem like such a chore. She would demand we have 50 drawings of a horse by the next week of school. I hated art back then. Well didn’t hate it, I just didn’t like her teaching method.
Oddly enough I got into art school. I think it drove me insane for a while. I was already copying comic artist like Jim Lee, J.Scott Campbell and Sam Keith. I was also drawing a large amount of manga, think Salior Moon and Ranma 1/2.
A lecturer caught me and told me off. She said you MUST draw in your own style. I took that as she wanted me to give up. So I did and didn’t touch a pencil for another 5 years till I got to TAFE.
TAFE in Australia is considered the lowest form of teritary education but I found it the best type of education for me. Lecturers encouraged you to draw, and code at the same time. I began to experiment with illustrator and photoshop, before TAFE I never touched a computer. Now I draw almost everyday and I’m ready to show off what I do.
If I ever decide to have children I will encourage them to do what they want and never listen to people who want to discouraged them. I spent 10 years of my life being discouraged, only now I see how bad I was for listening.
