Seeing Your Own Work

I've made art for people who displayed the art in their signatures or profiles or icons.
I always get super embarrassed because my art is hideous.
I'm like "No, put that horrid thing away U,B"

Do you ever get embarrassed when people show off your art?

I doubt they think it's "hideous" since they are displaying it. :mccute:

I get embarrassed to show off my own work. If I see someone else displaying it that doesn't bother me since it means they like it enough to do so.

I hate looking at my work after the fact. The more often I see it, the more I hate it. But, I think that's sort of par for the course. It's natural to be overly critical of your work.

I tend to be very critical of my own work. I have a hard time feeling like anything is ever truly finished.

I tend to be very critical of my own work also. I don't like watching my old drawings.

I want that in my house. Question: is the litre a spelling mistake or a pun? Because that makes it so much more awesome.

No one displays my art because I don't draw art for people much anymore and all the art I did do no one bothered to put it up anywhere. When I do go through my old art, sometimes it's UGH I was so bad at art and sometimes it's like UGH I'll never be that good again.

it was a pun :D it does have that going for it.
ik both those feelings. sometimes i see a particular eye that i try and replicate and i can't.
it's always awkward when you can clearly see your phases. there was a point where i was into drawing everyone in a particular pose, a bit of a saucy one, that my sister used to bug me about. now i finally see why.
