The one thing I've enjoyed about a post Generative A.I. online presence and discussion is that I've learned to really value my own Drawing ability and the drawings of others regardless of skill level. I might be out of practice and I draw very slowly but gosh darn it it's at least MY Drawing!
I've been working on something on and off since November but I've been motivated to actually get this one drawing done, pushing through my perfectionism and accepting the imperfections just to move forward because "hey, at least those are MY Human mistakes, MY Human inexperiences, and not an A.I.'s"
It's not about producing content, it's not about getting eyes to see it (though that would be nice) it's about putting the pencil on the paper (or the stylus on screen) and MAKING something that maybe could have have come from someone else's mind but my imperfections could only have come from mine!
