deleting arts in my social networks and likely to give up on art

Posted by raphaelcarrard - August 19th, 2023


i don't know, I see that art is not for me. in the beginning when I drew, everyone liked and praised. today, times have changed and it seems that there are artists much better and more popular than me and there are some who compete to see who can draw better. Every day that passes I feel outdated and that's really bad.


what for me was supposed to be a hobby or leisure, it seems that nowadays you need to be talented to be recognized/acclaimed... I, clearly, am not and never will be.


I tried... and lately some people keep saying that my art is rubbish, blocking me, canceling me, calling me pedo, etc...


the hate I received lately was so great as to put an end to it all.


since 2019 making art, starting on Instagram and expanding to other social media. Most of the comments I got were not nice at all. So much happened that I ended it.


okay, I'm aware that my art is rubbish, that my characters are rubbish and don't even deserve to exist. I never thought it was that good.


my self-esteem declined in 2023, my mental health is not going well.


I'm going to delete and replace some drawings here on Newgrounds with new ones... if it doesn't work here and on any other social network, I will definitely give up art. because I feel like I'm not welcome within the artistic community and if that's what some people think, that's fine... I'll stay away from it.


I will not delete my accounts because I know I have friends here and on other social networks who love and support me. Sorry if there was any fanart I made for you that I ended up deleting... I just need some time and start over from scratch.


that's all.

What happened?.. if you don't mind me asking :(

I'm losing audience to other artists and I'm being canceled for no reaction... it's affect my mental health

Sorry about that :(

Oh ...It's a real shame for you, es una lastima para ti bro Ú~Ù

I wasn't happy with the results of my drawings and ended up deleting almost everything ? apart from the criticisms, cancellations and blocks that I was taking ?

maybe I'll draw again next year, if all goes well more often... also today I made a animation on my YouTube channel ?

@raphaelcarrard oh enserio? Tus animación bro son muy increíbles <33 por cierto también publique en mi YouTube mis mascotas de gatos ;3
