Keep drawing and coloring I say.  |
Heh, thanks for the feed back.
As for the question, I don't think any artist can truly say that what they do is JUST for others and not themselves. Thats not to say it's a bad thing, just that they need something out of it to make them selves happy.
But I can say that most of the stuff I've done was for other people, mostly for people that can't do it for themselves. I guess thats how I built my whole reputation here, now that I think of it. I'm not a hugely good artist like the other people here, but I try and fill the gaps for people that can't get what they want anywhere else, which is fine by me.
Makes for good practice anyhow.
So, I guess the answer is, I do it for myself, mostly for others.
