The Ups and Downs

So at this point in time, I’m pretty sure I am never going to enter another art competition again. I never win and the disappointment eats at me. Badly.

I think I have an inflated opinion of myself and maybe think I’m better than I probably am.

The only thing I have ever won, was a school magazine front cover design competition, I was in Year 8, and I won it with another guy, he got the front cover, I got the back. (Eye roll)

Applied for a job at Disney, that was a long shot but I kept the rejection letter.
Wrote 2 x Children’s books, and received 143 rejections from publishers.

Skate deck competition. Nope.

Art competition. Nope.

Beer can design competition. Nope.

Grant application. Nope.

Poster competition. Nope.

Give me a FUCKING BREAK!

Rejection is shit. It’s basically another person telling you that your stuff isn’t good enough. Get fucked!

But alas, if this shit was meant to be easy, everybody would be doing it.

I do art cause I love it.

PEACE
