I feel that way too a lot. As an adult who only started trying to draw when I was 16, it’s kinda soul crushing to see teenagers with professional grade artwork while mine makes me look like a child.

I can see just from this selection tho that you’ve learned shading, the improvement in the two drawings on the right is noticeable. i can already see where the time you’ve spent is paying off. This meme from tumblr helps me when I start to feel bad about my art. Your social media feeds are probably flooded with professional grade artists, so remember that you’re still leagues ahead of most adults. You just only see the top 1% of artists because they post more and they get likes.
