Why I will never be a great artist...

  • Sep. 18th, 2009 at 3:40 AM
I've known the reason why I will never be a great artist for a while now, but it's taken some matzo for me to come out and actually say it.

The simple reason is this:

Breasts.

The full reason takes a little more explanation (although not much more).

I will never be a great artist because I want to draw the human form. I'm fascinated by it and everything about it; the only thing that I could find anywhere NEAR as scintillating is bird wings. (Don't even get me STARTED on angels.)

However, to draw the human form would require drawing both men and women, which... eh. How do I put this?

My attitude toward most people is screwed up enough, but when it comes to females... I just can't envision drawing a female character without her sexuality becoming apparent to me. Maybe it's because I'm just a lonesome teenage boy. At least, I'm hoping it is: that would suggest that the problem is at least remediable.

Anyways, for whatever reason, I am incapable of drawing the female form. I just can't do it. The idea of creating such a beautiful creature, line by line, curve by sinuous curve... It's too much.

Perhaps if there weren't such a difference in sexual characteristics betwixt the two sexes, it might be easier. Which is why it's the fault of all females for having breasts; not my fault for being socially and sexually stunted. Go away. I don't want to talk to you anymore.

(At least, not until the next 'blog post.)
