Slump

Fri Nov 20, 2009, 9:32 PM
Oh man, I've hit a creative slump. Not that I don't have things I want to create but I feel like I'm not good enough to create them. I suddenly feel like there is so much I need to practice in so many areas that I'm overwhelmed and so become artistically depressed. Knowing that I am able to land a job would help but I fear I'm not landing any jobs because I suck. Vicious. I am the kind of person who feel they have to be able to draw everything equally well. Am I ridiculousness for focusing on too many subjects? Is it foolish pride? Sometimes I wish I just didn't think so much.

  • Listening to: My demons
  • Reading: Too many e-mails

No, I go to the Joe Kubert School of Graphic Art. I picked it up a couple of years ago, not really sure why, I must have seen some stuff that stood out I guess.
:iconmavor:
How is that school. I remember looking at some info on it years ago. Has it grown pretty big?

It's still pretty small, in our graduating class we have 16 people split into 2 classes, so its nice that we get a lot of attention. The class under us has around 35 I think. It's a real good school for cartooning and graphic art, I've never had to work so hard in my life. They cover all aspects of commercial art but have a strong focus on sequential art. I have enjoyed my time here thoroughly, and feel I have learned a lot. How was Savannah it seems they have a good deal of talented artists emerging in the industry?
