>>5952064Man FUCK trends!
I spent the past year or so of my life as an artist chasing trends/waifus/etc just for the clout and it brought out the worst in me both mentally and emotionally speaking.
>Had mood swings if a piece didn't do as well as I thought it would>Had an inflated ego if a piece did better than I thought it would>Was always rushing to meet weekly deadlines>The need for likes and RTs cranked up my narcissisms several levels>I realized just how little of a fuck my peers and popular artists I looked up to give a fuck about me let alone helping me grow by leaps and boundsYou should be drawing for yourself anon and barring that, posting your work on any site that's not Instagram or Twitter!
