Art... block?

Lately I've been so frustrated with my drawing. I guess it had to do with drawing those Maakis? Well, they came out okay, but I just couldn't shade. Coloring got a tad bit easier, but still quite tricky. Every time I just want to give up, but having spent all that time, I can't. I won't. Even if I am truly unsatisfied, I'm gonna finish it through bc as of right now, it's my limit. Still working to pass that limit... some time in the future hopefully...
And whenever I finish a digital drawing, I look at it and tell myself "You're not good enough yet. You need to go back to traditional." And I know I need to. And of course I will. -sigh- it's so saddening, I don't know what I'll do when I go to San Jose...
Bc of Aoi-san, I've been wanting to try realism... but I'm afraid to...
But that's why I'm always on those art communities ie Paigeeworld & deviantART. The people I meet, and who just happen by on one my pieces, really hold me up :) It's also quite conflicting; I mean, have you seen some of the better artists? Their art both make me want to improve but also want to quit, of course, it's up to me in which direction I go. -cries-
*EDIT: oh yeah, my nibs & screen protector had come in already. The screen fits just right; a little slippery but at least my nib is lasting longer now & I don't have to be too careful writing on my tab. The new nibs don't look as good quality as the ones from Wacom...? o.o but that's all I can get since Wacom is not restocking :p

we live under the same sky
“To put away aimlessness and weakness, and to begin to think with purpose, is to enter the ranks of those strong ones who only recognize failure as one of the pathways to attainment; who make all conditions serve them, and who think strongly, attempt fearlessly, and accomplish masterfully.”
- James Allen Quotes
Sometimes I wonder how people see me and what they think of me. It scares me a bit, honestly. I am sure though, that what they think of me,
what they think my life is, is a complete misperception. I have always tried to show myself as a carefree person, as someone who wont get bothered
because of public judgements. I am sure my friend and family think there is nothing going wrong in my life, that I do not worry enough, that
I am always happy. And I am sure they probably somewhat hate me for it because, lets admit it, there is nothing worse than seeing someone
whose life seems so perfect while yours is a complete mess. Truth is, I have become an expert at pretending. I think we are all experts
or at least we are getting there.
I kept the image on the left bc it was kawaii-ne~ & this above bc I really liked what the creator wrote ^^
