I'm starting to think I should just be done with art and focus on writing or something. I put hours into everything I make, yet I watch things that I know only took five minutes to make gain popularity rapidly. I understand that I make a lot of fan art, and obviously people have to be interested in that particular thing to like it, but still.

Especially on tumblr. I'm extremely disappointed with tumblr. I spent 3 hours making the last thing I posted there, which I'm about to post here, and it's barely moved in notes. Yet, I just saw another five minute edit running around all over that dash that has 100 notes. What the fuck? People want simple things that anyone could make over actual legitimate effort? That's bullshit and it makes me feel like I wasted two years getting a fucking degree in Graphic Design, only to have people with minimal effort and talent do better than me?

Maybe I should just ditch visual art altogether, since I'm obviously not doing what everyone else likes right now.

No wonder I haven't been able to find a job in it.
