This piece came out of a struggle with myself when I thought that my art was really not that great. My only wish is to create beautiful, meaningful things and I felt like I was failing. However, I realized that all art has meaning to somebody, and even if only one person in the world thinks it's beautiful, then it's worth sharing.

"they'll say you're no different
but you and me,
we know what you are.
and with that, the little bird flew away"

They do look sad! They say that art reflects the artist's feelings at the time... actually that's what I say. But, as with everyone else, never doubt your work again! You've got a crowd of fans to encourage you!

Judging gets old and then people start to doubt themselves.. I kinda know what you mean (being an aspiring author and artist myself >.
