>>17 Yo, I'm also a art student who is going to attend a private art school. I am trying to become a digital animator. I haven't really gotten any terrible critiques on my art during my high school years, but I have never really done any animating now that I look back. I would suggest you to keep trying your best in improving your art. Anyone can become an artist if you try hard enough and draw everyday. Our greatest enemy is sloth. If you become lazy and stop believing in yourself, you lose.

Never ever give up, and be more enthusiastic about what your doing. Being a comic artist is one of the best jobs in the world, in my opinion.

BTW, I wouldn't mind taking a look at your artwork. I would love to give you some tips and help you improve.

I know I sound a little bit arrogant when it comes to drawing, but I take art very seriously and I never regret whatever I say about art.
