Im currently learning to draw and I feel like it's useless venture anons. What will I get out of it but at same time watching myself get better is so satisfying. You can see progress in real time and that keeps me going
>>84582474The theories and skills you get from drawing are abstractly useful whenever any sort of design is necessary
>>84582474Kek I didnt read a word of your post but that comic got a solid chuckle out of me so thank you for that
I haven't drawn in like a week because I turned off stabilizers and now feel like im back to perma/beg/
>>84582474If you're drawing because you think it will earn you money or something, you're a fool.Draw for the satisfaction, create things because it makes you happy. You either want to draw or you don't, it's that simple.
>>84582474>uselessYour joy and cultivating the discipline to learn a skill isn't useless. Guaranteed to turn into something that nets you more resources? Who knows. Even on 4chan people have started with art and later felt like making a game and put out something that did well on Steam (/agdg/ on /vg/ should still have that list).Others put out their work/journey on social media and end up being invited to do a piece for a big series. Or because of being in the mindset of creating and illustrating it one day create an aesthetic/setting that really takes off. It turns into their signature style or a series that they make art books of, maybe even making an animation or game based on it. I've seen that happen to a couple artists over time. Another who did fan art is now an art director at a game studio 6 years later.So enjoy the journey and make the most of where you are, but who knows where you'll go someday because you got moving in the first place. I also know people who just love to draw and don't do commissions despite demand for it.
