Just a short post to vent some frustration here. I'm not a good artist. If I try and draw anything more then a stick figure, it turns out horrible. Even my stick figures aren't that good. But I wish that I was a good artist, because, from time to time, whether its because of something I saw, something I read, or just a random flash of inspiration, I think of this absolutely amazing and beautiful thing to draw. Of course, whenever I try and draw something, it ends up looking absolutely terrible and I give up.
I was reading a forum, and one of the posts brought an image to my mind. A young angel looking girl, with one wing broken and dragging on the ground, crying, in a cage. It was one of the saddest and most beautiful things I had seen, in my mind. When I tried to draw it, I got a sketchy outline of a cage, and a stick figure girl. Drawing is one of the greatest gifts a person can have, and if you do have it, you should cherish it and nurture it. And if you happen to make an image of a crying angel, I certainly wouldn't mind seeing it....
