with ai everywhere, and society trending the way it is, it feels like authenticity is dying. i feel compelled now more than ever to create something real and something me. idk.
i really do feel a calling for music in this way. i know what i need to do. but the barrier to entry feels massive, i pick up the guitar and it takes way too long for me to swap between chords. i know i need to just push through.
i really want to get to the point where i am familiar enough with the guitar that it is not something i consider, just a pen i use to draw, an instrument i use to compose.
so its kind of true. i didnt really know anything about anything but just sat in front of krita for like 45 hrs and made it. and im sure if i would have stuck with it, i would be an actually decent artist by now.
like its not amazing but at one point i actually just sat down 6 hrs a day for like a week to draw this and i had never really drawn anything before. imagine if i would have stuck with it.
i watched a dr k video that explained why doers do, and the answer was theory crafting. i had just finished binging the nge rebuilds and wanted to create this picture of rei but in the rebuild outfit.
