A bit of art for @/littlefox_art_ DTIYS on insta! So excited for fall ✨🌛🎃

i love being bad at art. i love the yearning to get better that propels me to draw more, practice more, and eventually get closer to conveying what i want to convey. i hope i feel this way for the rest of my life

i feel like one of the best feelings in the world to me is to go from not having any idea how to do something to learning how to do it. to go from being an enjoyer of something and then thinking, how do i learn to make this thing that i enjoy? and to epxeriment & slowly piece together how.
