Art and Anxiety - 4 TIPS to WEATHER THE STORM!

Damn, the Elon’s comments did not age well

can I just say thank you for this? lol. I really needed to hear this today.

My goal of doing art, and also what gets me into art, is that muscular furry R34 artist who blew my mind…

Now I’m practicing hard to be able to become a concept artist, and when that day comes true, I will be drawing ALL the villains, furry, creature I love on r34 or Twitter…it sounds weird but it really IS what my goal for drawing is.

Great advise as always Trent!

I'm Lovin you man! First video of yours I've seen. Found while looking for how to start using the pen that came with my computer lol

Lol this was great! Needed this today. Thanks for sharing!

I feel so inspired now, really fueling my desire to become a character design artist. Dude your vids make a bigger difference than you'd ever know. Keep it up Trent, greetings from South Africa man!!

Tiiiiiiiiiiiiney lil hawnds

Can anyone help give me and other the title of 4 tips ? (just want to know what it about so if it the one I already know then it fine, if not then I and other would continue watch the video)

I've been watching your videos lately, they're always entertaining and useful, I feel inspired and I'm drawing a lot these days, but THIS, this gave me peace 😌 thanks!!

I love the hell out of this pep talk. Lol

Hello Sir, great video, I have a question tho. What if you survived many storms but at some point your body refuse to go through the next one, I mean in a way its not depended on your will

tiny baby hands hahah

I needed to hear this today

lol so good!

I knew I saved this for the perfect day, thanks Trent. This tiny little hands are working hard.

Ps, thanks

I think one of the reasons I stopped drawing was anxiety in general. I did really well in school, A* in Art. Then after school I just went to work instead of college. I got really bad anxiety/ stress issues from family background. And until right now, I never understood the feeling I got when, I wanted to do something I LOVED more than anything in the world, but subconsciously, in hindsight, I was scared, scared of failing!!
I’m a perfectionist in general. I’m not saying I’m perfect, I just like to push my own limits and try and make what already is, better.
If me being me means I’m better than you at something, that’s your ‘problem’, not mine. Lol
Anyway, one side of my head has this mad inspiration, and has an insanely detailed idea. But then like you said then, it’s like that vision in my head becomes a mountain, and all of a sudden I’m looking up, not down at it!!
Telling myself I can’t do that.
Then the other side of me is like ‘but if I try, you’ll fail, but learn’. Then the other side is like ‘failing is a waist of time/ life, there’s no point’.
And in the past, that’s where it ends!!
So much inspiration gone to the wind!!
But ye, these days I’m trying to get back on the horse.
I look at a half done picture sometime like ‘what’s the point’, but by the time you finish it, you can’t help but love that feeling of accomplishment, and telling yourself ‘that’s why!!’

Sorry for the rant lol

You're fish look great in this.

Trent out here spittin facts

Beautiful piece of art, Trent!

Hey Trent did you made a video about making your own illustrated novel?

Dude thanks for all the information your channel is god sent!

👍🏾

Ever have a project where all efforts of production is CONSTANTLY interrupted? The struggle is truly real and having worked on the project for almost 2 years is frustrating.

I love to see you drawing, bro. It's so nice!

This drawing was so done like half way for me.... then you kept going and I was like dammit I need to up my art game 10 fold and stop being lazy and pull the trigger.

This was really helpful. At the moment I'm trying to get out of my comfort zone so I've been doing work that's 100% different from what I'm used to do and it can be frustrating. Maybe I'll just do as you said and see how that works!

there is another mountain size tiger to climb in NFT art lol

Legit Thank you

thank for yoU'r great words, always help us to stay focus in our dreams to be artist... cheers from the country of panamá.

I might not be able to save the world, but at least I can make at least 1 person smile, and maybe I can tilt the world to be better 1 person at a time.

I needed to hear this today, thank you Trent.

Dont say, "I know I dont deserve it" when promoting yourself dude, especially at the end of a video YOU created to motivate OTHER people. Get some of that motivational advice and be confident in your work!

You! Deserve! It!
👏👏👏👏👏

Love your channel and videos but you're totally mistaken about Musk. That guy is one of the biggest dangers to this world; he's DEFINITELY not out to "save" it. Just look at some of the things he has said, the most recent heinous one being "We will coup whoever we want". His business ventures are nothing more than that - business ventures. Electric cars and space are just his way of empire building; he doesn't care about the general public at all. Digging the comic btw - Evil Twin Dreamcast vibes.

Hey Trent, I remember you saying something about comics industry doesn’t pay enough for the effort if compared to the gaming industry. I might be recollecting that wrong, so can you tell us how you see the comics industry theses days with all the challenges with the stores closed and COVID and so on... and the reasons behind you’re doing this comic? Thank you in advance and ‘see you manhã da ban’ (or however that is spelled lol). Cheers!

gosh i love this man

Very nice, man. Thanks 🙏

Still anxiously awaiting an “Up” moment. Art is effin’ exhausting and nobody gives a poo but you. And by you I mean me, but me doesn’t rhyme.

This video was really inspiring, and something I really needed to hear! Thank you! 🙏

Putting sh*t in perspective. Yes!

Trent: "I see these awesome artists and wonder how am I going to live up to that?"
Me: "Whaaaat???!!!"

thnks trent for all of your kindness .... you are my favourit artist man

i´m currently appling to university, but i´m having an artblock so it´s stressing me out. i think i really should take a little break to play a bit zelda or something. thanks for reminding me :)

cool.. except for the elon musk bit.

Thank you, I needed this

going trough something like this right now.

Next time I will feel anxious and underestimated because all those algorithms are not allowing artists to get their audience, I will listen to this video again and again! Thanks, Trent!

Comics are alien to my culture. However, I can understand their beauty. I've had all two comic book series in my life. And one of them I can't identify to find again. The second was a series of comic books about strange ragamuffin elves on wolves. I even remember the author. But the first comic book is a problem. I remember it was about Conan. Conan was already ruling something there. Some city. And the snake people sent him a "mistress", which at some point turned for some reason into a snake with boobs. And then suddenly a whole crowd of these snake-men ran up and the battle began. The problem is that all of Conan's stories revolve around battles, boobs, and Conan. Identifying the specific story itself is unrealistic for me.
