Great idea! Great giraffe, too. :)

This work is really good! I love the robot design and the character working on their laptop. Congrats :)

I want this, though. I need this. Need to feel like I'm human (well, giraffid). I can learn to draw. Maybe I'll never be amazing but I can be better than I am today. And hopefully I can someday be good enough to draw something I feel proud of. I can do this. I can do this.

The hardest part for me is going to be forcing myself to make terrible, ugly, amateurish drawings for years. Learning to love the process even if I hate the output.

I have to believe that it is still possible to learn. I have to believe I'm not immutable. Believe I can overcome challenges. Adopt a growth mindset. Drawing is a skill like any other. I only need to put in the effort and the practice.

I've bounced off every attempt to learn something substantial in the past decade plus. Nothing sticks. I give up when it gets hard. Maybe this will be the same. But...

I should have started ten or twenty years ago. Before I ironed out all the wrinkles in my brain, neural connections turned to concrete. Nothing left in my skull but a haze of smoke.

I feel like I've never been able to make anything with my hands that I've felt proud of. Unrefined motor skills maybe. I can only visualize fleeting images. Details escape me.

Any artistic inclinations I may have had as a kid were squelched early. I've never been much of a doodler or sketcher. I took a couple art courses in college, including drawing, and I was absolute shit.

damn he's sassy. would, tho.
